The game took place at MarbellaFootballCenter. Despite the rain the turf was of ideal quality by the starting whistle.
This time Dynamo didn’t use two completely different squads as on February 1 the White-Blues will play one more match – against FC Dinamo București.
Roman Bezus, Danilo Silva and Yevhen Selin didn’t take the field, besides it’s already known that Benoit Tremoulinas has left for France to perform for AS Saint-Etienne on loan.
On the other hand young defender Dmytro Ryzhuk featured as right back again. Aleksandar Dragovic and Yevhen Khacheridi played as centre backs and Yevhen Makarenko – as left back.
Serhiy Sydorchuk and Lukman Haruna were supporting midfielders.
Oleh Husiev and Jeremain Lens were creating side attacks. Brown Ideye was a finisher and Younes Belhanda – second forward. As for goalkeepers, in the first half Olexandr Rybka took the field and after the break – Olexandr Shovkovskyi.
Kyivans started the game actively as usual. Ideye could open the score three minutes into the match, but Lokomotiv defender saved his team when goalkeeper was helpless.
In the first half Haruna and Husiev also had scoring chances. Vida’s header hit the bar.
After the break Oleh Blokhin made ten substitutions. Only Dmytro Ryzhuk played till the final whistle.
Dynamo scored 69 minutes into the match. Yarmolenko put a low cross into the box and Mbokani netted the ball – 1:0!
Four minutes before the time Yarmolenko eluded three Lokomotiv defenders and hit the bottom corner.
