To all known personnel losses of "Vorskla" just before the game in Zaporozhye was added: damage to the pre-game training received Sklyar and Gabelok. Not yet ready for a hundred Arthur and Petrovich - both remain in reserve for this match.
The first "injection" in the reporting meeting belongs to the authorship of Lednev, who punched from the penalty box to the right bottom corner, and the stand got in the way of the ball, though Raznik, who debuts in the strongest league in the country, controlled the situation. Shortly after, Victor Skrypnyk's team, whose team, unlike the Poltava players, turned out to be in the optimum line-up, managed to lead the scoring. Exact blow in Rusyn's asset. There is much to write about the efforts of Vitaliy Kosovsky's wards to come up with several assists in a quick counterattack, and a desperate struggle against high-level un-fired matches by Melnychuk, Chelyadin and Stryzhak. It is also worth noting that the reserve of "white and green" was also a very young Cyprus player of the U-18 national team Kirill Fesyun.
No blows, but hot near the free kick Luhansk was closer to the end of the first half of the game. This Vasin and Kolomoyets forced ahead. Luizao also actively participated in the fight. And when the whistle was to be heard at the break, referee Vasina Schurman qualified as a penalty (although reps showed that the violation had taken place before the penalty zone - note), and Yurchenko managed a clever blow from the mark to make it 2-0. So, we note that two shots in the "frame" of "Vorskla" resulted in two goals scored.
From the 55th minute, the Poltava team remained in the minority after the removal of Baenko (second yellow) for a tackle, which appeared to be "dirty" for the referee of the meeting. The task of the guests was complicated by the incredible, and already Luizao dropped Vitaliy Kosovsky from the game, and Martinenko was called to strengthen the game in the center. In the 66th minute the composition of Poltava's wife became even more rejuvenated when 19-year-old Kozirenko appeared on the field instead of Kolomoyets. In the 71st minute, Vasin was dangerously punched - from a turn near the right post - by the fact of the Vorsklans' first opportunity in the second half. Having exposed the rear, in an effort to find their chance ahead, Vorskla missed from Lednev - 4: 0. For that reason, nothing special happened in this match and the score has not changed.
Why are Vorskli games so hard to play lately? This question now sounds almost to every fan. To understand at least something, just compare the lineups in the start rounds and a few recent ones. And this is, beyond all doubt, the objective cause of team failures. We continue to stick together and believe in our home club!
