FC Dynamo Kyiv have defeated Romanian side CS Universitatea Craiova in the first sparring at the training camp in Austria.
Three Kyivans’ newcomers – Junior Moraes, Radoslav Petrovic and Mykola Moroziuk – were in the starting lineup.
2 minutes into the game Moraes could open the score, but goalkeeper touched the ball after which it hit the bar.
Still Junior reached his aim soon. Yarmolenko passed to Moroziuk from the corner flag, Mykola put a cross into the box and Moraes headed the ball in!
Unfortunately Dynamo coaching staff had to substitute two players in the first half: at first Moroziuk picked up an injury and after that Moraes got hurt.
After the break the White-Blues kept creating chances. Eventually Miguel found Belhanda in the penalty area and Younes hit the target!
In the second half Petrovic played as centre back and Burda – as left lateral.
