FC Dynamo Kyiv hosted SC Dnipro-1 within the Ukrainian Premier League matchday 12. The game took place at the NSC Olimpiyskyi. It was quite interesting. Although the White-Blues didn’t manage to score in the first half, they succeeded after the break twice.
Both sides started the match quite carefully and didn’t create a lot of chances. Ramirez was active, but his cross was cleared. Tsyhankov attempted with a header, but missed. Later in the first half the game got more intense. Yarmoliuk sent the ball wide from close range. Ramirez eluded visitors’ defender, but didn’t hit the far corner. Later goalkeeper parried the shot by Andriyevskyi.
Both sides tried to pass the midfield quickly, but didn’t create actual scoring opportunities for a while. Vitinho missed my miles, Ramirez fell inside the box, but anyway fans didn’t see any goals before the break.
Early in the second half, Tsyhankov profiled himself. Viktor obtained the ball in the right side, coped with defender and hit the upper V with a fabulous strike from penalty area line! After that the game tempo increased significantly. Dovbyk attempted with a header, but Bushchan didn’t have any problems with that. Then Dnipro-1 had several opportunities within one attack, but all their shots were blocked.
Meanwhile Kyivans used their chance. Mykolenko found Tsyhankov with a long ball, Viktor put a low cross, defender touched the ball, Harmash obtained it and hit the target with a powerful strike – 2:0. Buialskyi could increase the lead, but goalkeeper saved Dnipro-1 in one-on-one situation.
