Dynamo on the way to final

Dynamo snatched a 2-1 victory over Metalurh Zaporizhya in their bid to make it to the Ukrainian Cup final, with the second leg to be played in Donetsk in a four weeks’ time. Whereas Kyiv bossed the initiative throughout the game, the opponents deployed elaborate tactical weapon.

The White-Blues took a late first half lead through Husyev, after the midfielder headed in Corrêa’s free kick cross. The visiting team equalized in the 55^th minute through their top scorer Kosyrin, who fired home a 20-meter shot.

As the match was drawing to a close, Yuriy Semin threw Aliyev and Milevskyy at the expense of Ninković and Kravets. The substitution came out right. After making a good tackle on the right flank, Milevskyy sent a cross to Aliev, who, having missed the target a couple of moments ago, was better this time and netted in a winner.
