Dynano Kyiv dropped another two points after being held to a 1-1 draw to Metalist Kharkiv at home on Sunday.
In an even encounter at the Lobanovskyy Dynamo stadium, Oleh Husyev gave Dynamo the lead on 31 minutes, capitalising on a defensive error and finding the bottom left-hand corner. But the visitors hit back just four minutes later to secure a share of the spoils through a penalty kick by Marko Dević.
The White-Blues had an opportunity to regain the lead just before the interval after being awarded a spot kick. Unfortunately, Artem Milevskyy's shot hit the crossbar and bounced out.
