FC Olimpik Donetsk hosted FC Dynamo Kyiv at the Stadium named after Valeriy Lobanovskyi in the Ukrainian Cup semifinals first leg.

Comparing with the game against FC Shakhtar Donetsk there were five substitutions in the White-Blues starting lineup.

The fist scoring opportunity of the match was created by Olimpik. Kadymyan intercepted Dragovic’s pass to Rybka, but goalkeeper saved our team.

Dynamo didn’t try to force events at once. After the break Serhiy Rybalka replaced Serhiy Sydorchuk.

In the second half Kyivans attacked more actively. Younes Belhanda unleashed a good shot, but keeper Makharadze cleared it.

Andriy Yarmolenko and Miguel took the field 64 minutes into the match and enforced our team, but still Serhiy Rebrov’s men didn’t create a lot of chances.

The final score of the game is 0:0. The return match will take place in May at the NSC Olimpiyskyi.
