Women "Polissya" - Women "Kryvbas" 1:1

Kryvyi Rih Women "Kryvbas" in the away match of the 2nd round of the second stage of the Higher League met with Zhytomyr Women "Polissya". We lost the last two matches to our rivals, so the motivation to get points today was extraordinary.

But already in the 5th minute the guests conceded. They missed Tarakanova's one-on-one, who threw the ball over Soloviova - 1:0. In response, the Kryvyi Rih team conducted many sharp attacks, but managed to score only at the end of the match. Stakhniuk successfully executed a free kick - exactly into the near corner - 1:1.

Later, Nazarenko could have brought us victory, but she missed the far corner after going face to face with the goalkeeper. The match ended in a draw - 1:1. The next match is on April 22 at home against "Ladomir" in the 4th round.
