The White-Blues opened the score 30 minutes into the match. Shaparenko found Buialskyi, who hit the upper V spectacularly.
Visitors could respond right away. Boiko saved the team after another cross by Kalytvyntsev.
Four minutes later Antiukh failed to increase the lead in one-on-one situation but Buialskyi was the first to obtain the ball and Safronov fouled against him. Upon checking VAR, referee awarded penalty and Tsyhankov made it 2:0.
After the first half, Desna made two substitutions while Dynamo – one. Shkurin replaced Harmash.
Visitors were quite active early in the second half, but Kyivans made it 3:0. Zaviiskyi passed back inaccurately, Buialskyi got the ball and hit the corner.
