In the second matchday of VBET Premier League Dynamo Kyiv visited Lviv where they played with the local team Rukh.
The home team started the match quite lively and created a dangerous moment early on, but the White-Blues' defenders managed to avert the danger.
Dynamo gradually took the initiative, pushing forward more actively and pressing in the opponent's half. Kyiv took the lead in the 21st minute: after Buyalskyi's corner kick, Rukh's defenders failed to clear the ball away from their own half, and Mykhavko kicked the ball to the net from the goalkeeper’s area – 0:1.
Until the end of the first half, Oleksandr Shovkovsky's players continued to hold the possession, but the spectators were bored due to the lack of good chances at the goal.
This changed in the second half. The spectators were likely to see goalscoring performance by Dynamo players.
In the 47th minute Vivcharenko crossed into the penalty area from the left flank, the ball flew over Guerrero's head and landed at Kholod's feet, who kicked it into his own goal – 0:2.
Even with a comfortable lead, the “white and blue” did not stop, pressing on the opponent’s half. Vivcharenko intercepted the goalkeeper's pass in the penalty area and then rolled the ball to Buyalsky, and the captain had no choice but to score into an empty net – 0:3.
In the 77th minute Dynamo scored their fourth goal. Brazhko sent Guerrero through on the right flank with a superb pass, the forward entered the penalty area but did not shoot himself instead rolling the ball to the 11-meter mark where Bragaru ran up and shot past the goalkeeper with one touch – 0:4.
Three minutes later Yarmolenko shot on goal and the keeper saved, Braharu was the first to pick up the ball, rolled it to Yatsyk, who shot past many players – 0:5.
