Shakhtar easily beat Dvizhenie after a disgraceful departure from European competition: video reviews of Ukrainian league matches

On Sunday, March 19, the game program of the 18th round of the Ukrainian Football Championship ended with matches in Petrovo, Kovalivka and Lvov.

Championship of Ukraine. 18th round

March 19 (Sunday)

“Shakhtar” (Donetsk) - “Movement” (Lviv) - 2:0 (Matvienko, 27, Kryskiv, 31). Junior teams - 0:2.

“Miner”: Trubin, Gocholeishvili (Konoplya, 46), Bondar, Rakitsky (Mikhailichenko, 69), Matvienko, Stepanenko (Nazarina, 80), Kriskiv, Bondarenko, Dzhurasek (Ocheretko, 66), Sudakov, Kelsey (Traore, 46).

After a crushing defeat in the second leg of the 1/8 finals of the Europa League from Feyenoord (1:7), Shakhtar’s mentor Igor Jovicevich, who played the 100th match in the UPL as a coach (Taras Stepanenko also had his anniversary - for the captain Shakhtar, this game became the 250th in the Ukrainian league), rotated the squad. The painful knockout from the European Cups had no effect on the Pitmen’s game, which secured victory within a few minutes in the first half thanks to goals from Matviienko and Kryskiv, and continue to lead the standings.

“Ingulets” (Petrovo) - “Chernomorets” (Odessa) - 1:2 (Golovkin, 83 - Hadida, 2, from the penalty spot, Alefirenko, 40). Junior teams - 0:3.

“Ingulets” approached the fight as a favorite, having won four previous matches in the Premier League, but everything did not go according to the scenario of the team of Sergei Kovalets from the very beginning. Having conceded two goals in the first half (moreover, the penalty kick taken by the “seafarers” in the 2nd minute became one of the fastest in the history of the Ukrainian championship), Petrovka managed to answer with only one goal in the second half shortly before the final whistle.

“Kolos” (Kovalevka) - “Minay” - 0:1 (Kravchuk, 9). Junior teams - 5:0.

Zakarpattia “Minaj” unexpectedly beat “Kolos” on the road, ruining the anniversary, 50th, home game in the Premier League for Kuznetsov, and Volodymyr Sharan’s wards themselves interrupted an unflattering series of four matches without victories.

March 18 (Saturday)

Dynamo (Kyiv) - Zorya (Lugansk) - 0:1 (Guerrero, 83). Junior compositions - 5:1.

“Dynamo”: Neshcheret, Timchik, Dyachuk, Popov, Ovcharenko, Sidorchuk, Lonveik, Garmash (Shepelev, 56), Kabaev (Perros, 56), Tsarenko (Voloshin, 56), Vanat (Ramirez, 75).

Lviv - Kryvbas (Kryvyi Rih) - 2:2 (Bogunov, 74, Belyaev, 78 - Kapic, 19, from the penalty spot, 79). In the 43rd minute, Tatarkov (Kryvbas) was sent off, and in the 74th minute Bugay (Lviv) missed the penalty. Junior teams - 3:0.
