On Saturday, November 7, Dynamo U21 played their match of the 12th round of the 2026/2027 Ukrainian Premier League-2 Youth Championship. Pavlo Cherednichenko’s side faced Shakhtar Donetsk away from home.
The visitors enjoyed more possession and began creating threats to the opposition’s goal from the very start. After several good attempts that did not result in goals, the Kyiv side produced an impressive five-minute spell in the second half of the first period, during which they managed to score twice. First, Supriaha met a superb cross from Bekerskyi on the right into the penalty area and expertly beat the goalkeeper – 0:1.
A few minutes later, Supriaha drew four Shakhtar players around himself inside the penalty area. They prevented him from taking an accurate shot, but the ball fell to Pashko, who sent it into the net with a precise effort from the edge of the penalty arc – 0:2.
The second half, however, began with an unfortunate incident for Dynamo when Korobov fouled Tsukanov inside his own penalty area, and the referee awarded a penalty. The spot-kick was converted by the fouled player himself – the ball hit the post before going into the corner of the net – 1:2.
Midway through the second half, Shakhtar came close to equalising. Zubrii played a through ball to Tiutiunov, but Surkis came to his team's rescue, closing down the opponent and neutralising the threat near the left corner of the six-yard box. Immediately afterwards, the Miners took a corner kick. The visitors managed to clear the ball, but it fell to Tsukanov, whose shot was kept out only by the post, which came to the rescue of the White-Blues.
In response Pashko tested Bahlai with a shot from around the edge of the penalty area. Shortly before the final whistle, Supriaha completed his brace, scoring his ninth goal and moving to the top of the UPL-2 scoring charts. Vladyslav raced away from Mylokost, who was attempting to clear the ball, but it eventually went into the net off the Dynamo player's leg – 1:3.
In stoppage time, Tsukanov tried his luck with a long-range effort, but Surkis leapt to his right and tipped the ball away from the corner of the goal.
Thus, Pavlo Cherednichenko’s team secured another victory and moved onto 27 points in the standings. It should be noted that Dynamo U21 will play their next UPL-2 match at home: on November 23, in the 13th round, our team will face Obolon Kyiv in a capital-city derby.
