On Wednesday, February 2, FC Dynamo Kyiv played their second friendly at the training camp in Turkey. Mircea Lucescu’s men faced the Serbian side FK Cukaricki. The game was really interesting and intense. The White-Blues came back from 0:2 down and won 3:2.
Dynamo started the match actively. Kulach performed heel pass to Harmash inside the box and Denys attempted with a strike, but goalkeeper was there. Antiukh unleashed a shot from outside the penalty area, but keeper parried again.
Meanwhile Cukaricki used two chances and scored twice within a couple of minutes. At first Savic put a cross into the box and Rakonjac headed the ball in. In the following attack Rakonjac assisted Colovic, who increased the lead.
Serbian team applied pressure and didn’t let Kyivans approach their penalty area a lot. Shots by Harmash and Antiukh were blocked.
Dynamo could pull one back early in the second half. Tsyhankov put a corner and Sydorchuk unleashed decent volley, but goalkeeper saved his team. Vanat attempted with a header after another cross by Tsyhankov, but the ball vent over the ball. Still the White-Blues almost conceded again halfway through the second half. Rakonjac hit the post.
Ukrainians responded with two goals scored pretty much one after another. At first Roganovic fouled against Tsyhankov inside the box and referee awarded penalty. Cukaricki keeper coped with the first attempt by Shaparenko, but Mykola succeeded with follow-up.
Then Vitinho put an accurate cross from the left side and Buialskyi equalized with one-touch shot – 2:2. Nine minutes later Vitinho grabbed the winner for his team. He rushed into the penalty area and sent the ball into the far corner – 3:2.
What should be mentioned is that Artem Besedin, who’d been recovering from bad injury for quite a while, made a substitute appearance.
