"Dynamo" Zagreb - "Kryvbas" 0:2

"Kryvbas" continues its preparations for the new season and today played its fourth sparring session at the Slovenian meeting. The opponent is the most titled club in Croatia, a permanent member of the Champions League, Dynamo Zagreb.

Klischuk played his first match after the injury, who came out from the first minutes. The debut of sparring, the format of which provided for two halves of 60 minutes, took place in an equal struggle. However, "Kryvbas" looked more powerful in attack. Already at the beginning Stetskov brought Tverdokhlib to a rendezvous with Zahorats with a cool pass, but Yehor lost the duel to his opponent.

At the 17th minute, our counterattack took place. Mykytyshyn ran a considerable distance and passed to the left to Prince. The Ghanaian beat his opponents on the fly and poked the ball into the goal with his low kick -0:1. While "Dynamo" was recovering, we scored the second time shortly after. Interception of the ball from Kuzyk in the other half of the field - Tverdohlib picked up the leather and hit the bottom from the penalty line exactly in the far corner -0:2.

The Croatians had some good attacks of their own, but Dibango and company handled the pressure. Kryvyi Rih also carried out raids. Yes, the same Dibango was brought out one-on-one, but the referee's assistant recorded offside, which, however, was not close. In the 52nd minute, the opponent squandered almost his only chance to score, when Mišić powerfully shot into the far corner after a counterattack, but missed the shot.

At the end of the first 60 minutes, the teams exchanged moments: Ademi jumped out tête-à-tête with Klischuk, but Andriy saved after a close-range shot. And then Prince could realize his next chance, but he delayed his decision and the goal moment was lost.

In the second half, the teams changed their lineups. "Kryvbas" has been renewed by one hundred percent. And already in the debut, the Croats almost scored, when after a pass from the right wing, Brodych shot close, but Makhankov and Konate played to the end and eliminated the threat. "Dynamo" started the half actively, and later Makhankov really saved the red and whites from trouble again.

In those minutes, Kryvyi Rih continued to play defensively and restrained the onslaught of the Croats. Later, Rog cleverly shot from a dangerous free kick, but Makhankov miraculously managed to convert the projectile into the crossbar, and Konate was the first to tackle. Kryvbas responded with a half-moment from Kozhuska, when his strong, potentially goal-scoring shot was blocked. "Dynamo" continued to play as the number one player after the break. And Khoma already saved the team after a dangerous shot by Kulenovich.

The end of the match was spent in mutual attacks, but we did not see any more goals today. 0:2 – victory of "Kryvbas", the second in the second meeting! The next sparring match, the penultimate one in Slovenia, will be played by Kryvyi Rih on July 20 against the representative of the UAE championship - "Al-Batai".
