With the victory over Kryvbas, Polissia secured itself on the first step of the UPL until October

Zhytomyr Polissya and Kryvyi Rih Kryvbas in the seventh round of the Ukrainian Premier League also became victims of air disturbances that visited most regions of our country on Friday, due to which they were forced to start their own duel with a high degree of intrigue half an hour later than planned. But still, they started, which was already a small victory. At the same time, Patrik van Leeuwen's team understood that a rather difficult role of the team, which will be forced to be under more pressure in their own half, awaits them on a foreign field. But either because of anxiety, or because of some other reasons, but already at the beginning of the game, something made Navi commit a foul against Fedor in the center of his own penalty area, when he received a pass from the left wing from Veletny. The referees played the episode at first, but then on the replay they returned to watching it, and here Oleksandr Omelchenko was as eloquent as possible in his decision. As well as Krasnopir, who did not fall for all these dances of Kemkin, and calmly punched into the lower right corner of the other side's goal. A quick goal had an impact on the further course of events in the context that allowed the "wolves" to continue to impose their football on the opponents. Whereas Kryvbas was frankly difficult to watch in the first half. Van Leeuwen's team could not cross the center of the field under the pressure of the opponents, who could warm it twice with long shots by Krasnopir and Babenko, but both times the ball hit the crossbar. The guests also brought their first and only danger to the other half with the help of a long-range shot, but Giovani only forced Kudryk to stretch. But at the beginning of the second half, Kryvbas was already acting much more interestingly and Polissia had little prospect of repeating the defeat against Luhansk Zora on their own field, when Kamenbroadcaster broke into the left flank of the penalty area in the 56th minute and hit a shot at the near post. The "Wolves" did not immediately, but still calmed down the game in their own favor after that, and managed to bring it to a logical conclusion. Polissya also claimed the second goal in this game due to counterattacks from Andrade and Hajducyk, but the latter was unlucky again - he hit the left post with a long shot. Kryvbas did not have similar moments, but van Leeuwen's team kept a certain tension and the hosts did not feel completely confident in the last minutes. In the next round, Polissya from Zhytomyr will visit Bukovyna from Chernivtsi, and Kryvbas from Kryvyi Rih will visit Obolon from Kyiv. Polissia — Kryvbas 1:0 Goal: Krasnopir, 6 (pen.)
