"Kryvbas" - "Brentford" B 0:0

Today, Kryvbas played its fifth friendly match at the Spanish winter training camp. For the second year in a row, we are facing the English Brentford double.

First half

The starting lineup of Kryvbas is young, newcomers, plus several key players: Dibango and Villivald. Our team spent the first 45 minutes more actively, constantly pushing near Tavaziva's goal. Shevchenko, Bodnar, Jones, and Kamenskyi missed their chances to score before the break.

The latter executed a dangerous set piece well, but almost missed the far corner. Sec also powerfully shot past the post. Kryvbas had the advantage, but no goals.

Second half

Immediately after the break, the red and whites continued to attack. Kryvbas had several scoring opportunities, but they could not score. In the middle of the half we even earned the right to a penalty, but Mulyk failed to convert the 11-meter penalty. Volodymyr decided to shoot with force and the ball flew over the goal.

Kryvyi Rih did not give up hope of victory until the last minute, but the opponent held on to a draw – 0:0. The next sparring match is on Saturday, February 7, against the bronze medalist of the Latvian championship – FC Liepaja.
