Premier League: Zorya lost championship points after success in Europe

Three matches on Sunday ended with the 5th round of the Ukrainian Championship.

In the first match under the leadership of the new coach, Portuguese Jose Morais, Karpaty escaped defeat in Chernihiv, losing the first half with a difference of two goals. Bosnian defender Adi Megremic scored his debut goal in Ukraine. "Desna" scored the first goals at home in the top division, but the first home victory of Chernihiv in the elite did not happen again.

The program of the tour was completed by two representatives of Ukraine in the Europa League this season. But if Vorskla is already waiting for the draw of the group stage, Zorya still needs to overcome the barrier of the playoff round to get to the main grid of the European Cup.

Probably the toughest schedule for the Luhansk people on Thursday held a match with "Braga" at the other end of the continent, became apparent during their confrontation with Olympic. After the success in Portugal, Yuri Vernidub's wards simply did not have time to recover, so it is not surprising that they met with the team of Roman Sanjar - 0: 0. Oleksandr Karavayev, a player of the national team of Ukraine, came out in the starting lineup of Zorya and was replaced in the 90th minute.

In turn, Vorskla, which played its first game at its stadium after the reconstruction, defeated another recent member of Eurobatals - "Mariupol".

In the 14th minute, due to injury, the captain of Poltava Volodymyr Chesnakov, who played his 250th match in the championships of Ukraine, was forced to leave the field. Vorskla was the first to miss, but managed to win back and win. Vladislav Kulach scored a great goal, scoring in the fall. Decisive in the game was the moment in the 88th minute, when after a shot Kobakhidze Polegenko sent the ball into the visitors' goal, scoring an own goal.
