"Kryvbas" - "Zulte Waregem" 1:2
In the second test match at the summer training camp in the Netherlands, Kryvbas was faced by a representative of the Belgian elite division - Zulte-Waregem. The match turned out to be a fighting and informative one for the coaching staff of Patrick van Leeuwen, who again involved a large group of football players in the game.
From the first minutes, the rivals acted actively and tried to impose a high pace on each other. In the 25th minute, the Kryvrizh players were close to success: Seck sent the ball into the net, but the referee recorded an offside and the goal was not counted.
Instead, the Belgians soon opened the score. In the 31st minute, after a free kick, Laurent Lemoine was the best in the penalty area, who brought Zulte-Waregem ahead - 0:1. Immediately after the break, Kryvbas restored balance. In the 47th minute, after a foul on Shevchenko, the referee awarded a penalty, which Jurcec confidently converted - 1:1.
In the second half, the coaching staff of the red-and-whites traditionally made a number of substitutions, giving a large number of players game practice. Both teams continued to look for ways to the opponent's goal, but the outcome came at the end of the match. In the 89th minute, Panduro took advantage of his chance and brought the Belgian club a victory - 1:2.
Ahead of Kryvbas is the final friendly match at the training camp in the Netherlands. His team plans to hold it on July 14, and the name of the opponent will be announced later.
