FC Dynamo Kyiv have defeated FC Hoverla Uzhhorod at the NSC Olimpiyskyi within the UPL matchday 9.
Home side coaching staff made nine substitutions in the starting lineup comparing with the game against FC Obolon-Brovar Kyiv. Only Aleksandar Dragovic and Miguel were among first eleven in both matches.
Visitors’ goalkeeper Rudko had a lot of work. Artur had to save his team every three-five minutes. Andriy Yarmolenko was very active. The first goal was just the matter of time. 33 minutes into the match Yarmolenko found Kravets inside the box with a heel pass and Artem hit the target!
Dynamo scored the second goal after the break thanks in large part to Serhiy Sydorchuk, who put a good low cross into the penalty area, where Oleh Husiev netted 101st goal in his career!
Kyivans keep leading in domestic league with FC Shakhtar Donetsk lacking three points behind them.
