FC Dynamo Kyiv – FC Dinamo Tbilisi – 1:0

International players didn’t take the field as they joined the team only on June 19. Dudu, Ruben and Haruna have also missed the game.

10 Ukrainians were among Dynamo Kyiv first eleven. The only foreigner was Danilo Silva. Olexandr Aliyev got the captain’s armband.

The squad of our team was as follows: Koval, Danilo Silva, Liulka, Sydorchuk, Makarenko, Kalytvyntsev, Buialskyi, Bohdanov, Aliyev, Tsurikov and Kravets.

Game aspects

The White-Blues opened the score 7 minutes into the match. Vitaliy Buialskyi put a cross into the box and Artem Kravets netted the ball.

After that Kyivans kept playing attacking football. Kravets could double the score, but Tbilisi side defender saved his team. Later Georgians’ keeper Loria cleared the ball after Kalytvyntsev’s shot.

Buialskyi and Tsurikov were active. Serhiy Sydorchuk played as center back which is unusual for him.

Right before the break Kravets didn’t manage to score in one-on-one situation.

In the second half Koval, Kalytvyntsev and Aliyev were substituted with Shovkovskyi, Mehmedi and Bertoglio.

By the way, Kalytvyntsev and Aliyev returned to the game later as the White-Blues lacked outfield players.

In the second half Kyivans mostly tried to score from distance.

Eventually Tbilisi side suffered a narrow defeat.
