Europa League: Dynamo win in France in dramatic match

26.10.2018 01:59

Vitaliy Buyalsky brought the first victory in the Europa League to the people of Kiev

At Roazon Park, there were teams that were considered the group's favorites before the start of the tournament, but now due to unforeseen loss of points they have to argue with each other to keep the chances of getting a ticket to the next round.

Among the personnel decisions of Alexander Khatskevich could be an occasion to discuss the appearance on Shepelev's field instead of Sidorchuk and exit from the first minutes of Sidkley (due to injury he could not play Tsigankov). As for the position of the striker, these functions were not for the first time forced to perform Verbich, because Besedin and Rusin continue their recovery.

The game started surprisingly lively. Even before the end of the 3rd minute Zhilen twice dangerously punched after the corner, and Morozyuk, completing the lightning counterattack of Kiev, from the line of the goalkeeper hit the crossbar.

The course of the match did not give reason for boredom in the future. Opponents exchanged sharp attacks, and the first managed to implement their offensive actions in the visitors' goal. Garmash didn't hit the ball after Buyalsky's pass, but Kendzor, who was running at a second pace, surprisingly successfully scored from a distance, hitting the top near corner of the goal. However, Rennes found its own "truck". Grenier beat Boyko from a free kick from a considerable distance, and at an angle. This episode did not go without an outright mistake of the Ukrainian goalkeeper.

After the break, Kyiv had to work hard in defense, the final minutes seemed the most difficult given the withdrawal of Shepelev, who earned a second yellow card in the 85th minute. However, there were preconditions for counterattacks, and the guests used one of them. Buyalsky scored from a sharp angle after a pass from Che Che in the penultimate minute of regular time.

Dynamo included players who took part in the last meeting of the national team of Ukraine: Boyko (yellow card), Burda, Buyalsky (goal, goal pass and yellow card), Sydorchuk (came on as a substitute in the 68th minute).
