Valeriy Gazzaev’s men came from a goal behind to secure a narrow 2-1 home win against FC Obolon Kyiv which keeps them top in the league table.
Obolon’s Serhiy Yavorskyy made the breakthrough with a strike on 72 minutes, but the White-Blues were back on level terms just two minutes later. Dynamo captain Artem Milevskyy was in the right place at the right time to convert the rebound after Oleh Husyev’s effort was parried by Obolon goalkeeper Andriy Tovt. Dynamo continued to press forward and soon scored the winner thanks to Andriy Shevchenko. The striker showed his class when he turned in Miloš Ninković's perfect pass to put the hosts ahead ten minutes from time.
The players are now fully concentrated on their upcoming trip to Italy and expect the match against Champions League opponents FC Internationale Milano in a good mood.
