Kryvbas - Chornomorets 1:0

So the new UPL season has begun! "Kryvbas" hosted "Chornomorets" at home. Romanchuk made his debut for Kryvyi Rih from the first minutes. It was he who formed a pair of central defenders with Stetskov.

The debut of the game was left to our team, which scored a much-needed "quick" goal. Kuzyk made a great pass from the right to the goalkeeper, from where Tverdokhlib shot the goal from the second floor -1:0. "Kryvbas" continued to attack, but soon Stetskov shot powerfully from the left from outside the penalty area, but hit the post. Later, after Dibango served, Prince finished, but Rudko saved the guests from the second goal.

Another moment in a minute: Tverdohlib didn't hit the ball properly in a good situation. Chornomorets focused exclusively on defense. The opponent's rare counterattacks were not sharp, and "Kryvbas" fought back with ease. Only at the end of the half did the Odessans have their moment, when the ex-player of the red and white Hoblenko shot through the goal after a horse pass, but luckily for us, the ball hit the crossbar.

The second half started with the second goal against Chornomorets. Tverdohlib cut a pass from the right flank to the far post, from where Mykytyshyn accurately punched it into touch. But, unfortunately, the impressive goal was canceled due to offside. Red and white continued to lead the game and create chances. Dibango connected well to attacks - on 55 minutes, he scratched the ball and shot from an acute angle, but it was inaccurate.

At the 65th minute, a wing pass went to Mykytyshyn, but Butko broke the rules against Artur. The referee's whistle was silent. Po actively entered the game from the bench. He made sharp shots on goal several times, but a little inaccurately. Kryvyi Rih attacked across the entire width of the field. Stetskov, Sosa, and even the debutant Romanchuk had their chances to stand out, but they were unlucky in the final stage.

But Chornomorets had its chance at the end. Klischuk miraculously saved a shot from Butko, who was alone in front of the goal after a wing pass. 1:0 – a difficult but natural victory for Kryvbas.
