"Chornomorets" - "Kryvbas" 2:1
In the second test match at the summer training camp, Kryvbas met in Odessa with the local Chernomorets, who will again play in the UPL this year.
First half
The beginning of the match was held with active play by both teams. Already in the 3rd minute, Araujo, after a corner kick and a rebound, dared to take a long-range shot from about 30 meters, but the ball flew inaccurately. Soon the hosts opened the scoring. In the 5th minute, after a free kick from the right flank, Jurcec, trying to interrupt the pass, cut the ball into his own goal - 1:0.
In the 8th minute, Khoma jumped out face to face with Kemkin, but Oleksandr saved his team. After the corner kick, Odesa scored another shot, but Kemkin again demonstrated reliability. In the middle of the half, the game was level. Later, Bekavac powerfully shot from the penalty spot, but the ball hit the crossbar. In the 26th minute, Seck aimed for the near nine from 15 meters, but the goalkeeper made a wonderful save.
Second half
After the break, the teams continued to play on opposite courses. In the 51st minute, Chernomorets could have doubled their lead after a counterattack, but Popov from an advantageous position shot past the near post. However, within three minutes, Kryvyi Rih scored in return. Yurcech passed the ball to Giovani, who, with a powerful shot from outside the penalty area into the near corner, left no chance for the goalkeeper - 1:1.
However, the parity did not last long. In the 62nd minute, Odessa led an attack from the right flank, after a pass, Faraseyenko sent the ball through himself into the near corner of the goal with a spectacular shot - 2:1. In the final part of the match, the game was evenly contested. In the 86th minute, one of the Kryvbas newcomers made a dangerous shot from 22 meters into the near corner, but the goalkeeper managed to save this attempt as well.
In the end, Kryvbas lost to Chornomorets with a score of 1:2. The team is now facing the next stage of preparation - a training camp in the Netherlands.
