"Kryvbas" - "Karpaty" 1:0

In the 27th round of the UPL, Kryvbas hosted Karpaty at home. And this was the penultimate home game for the red and whites this season. For the first time, Seck started as a striker, and Paraсo was on the bench.

First half

The debut of the game was left to the guests. Alkain shot in the first minutes - above the goal. Kryvbas responded in the 14th minute, when Seck could have headed the ball - at the last moment the defenders cleared the ball for a corner. Later, Rukh created a real episode when Sych aimed for the far corner - fortunately, past the post.

Kryvyi Rih suffered after several more good attacks by the opponent and scored in response. After a cool cross from the ground by Jurcec, Seck momentarily got ahead of the opponent and opened the score - 1:0. Mendoza was usually active on the left flank, but today was probably not his day: there were both mistakes and inaccurate shots.

Second half

After the break, Mendoza continued to try to shoot from any distance, but today he lacked accuracy. In the 55th minute, Karabin shot well in response, but inaccurately. Karpaty seized the initiative and created several sharp moments near our goal.

Fortunately, Kemkin acted very confidently in the box and made cool saves, really saving Kryvbas from a goal: Miroshnichenko, Kostenko, Chachua lost the duel to our goalkeeper. On the other hand, the red and whites also had their moments. Zaderaka missed the ball after Mendoza's pass from close range, and Mulyk, who came on as a substitute, shot a little inaccurately into the far corner after a counterattack.

A tough victory for Kryvbas - 1:0. Congratulations to all the fans on this success!
