Dynamo Kyiv overcame strong resistance from FC Metalist Kharkiv on Friday to record their second consecutive win of the 2010/2011 Ukrainian Premier League season.
The hosts were the first to take advantage, as Brazilian defender Fininho scored on the stroke of half-time but their lead didn't last long. Right after the interval, Dynamo took more control of the game and soon were level with the opponents. It was team’s captain Andriy Shevchenko who made it all-square with a penalty kick on the 55th minute after a foul on his colleague Roman Zozulya in the area. Unlike the first half, the Kyivers had more chances in the second half and eventually grabbed the lead in the 65th minute thanks to talented youngster Denys Harmash. The 20-year-old midfielder stole the ball from Metalist defender Papa Gueye and made no mistake in front of Metalist goal.
