Europa League. Vorskla completes Ukrainian club's Euro Cup program in 2018 with defeat in Lisbon

14.12.2018 01:52

Vorskla's match in Lisbon officially ended the autumn part of the season for Ukrainian clubs. From the tournament point of view, the result of the game did not matter, as the Portuguese club secured a place in the Europa League playoffs in advance, while Poltava had no chance to finish higher than the third step.

Sachka's wards undoubtedly wanted to knock on the door and go on vacation in a positive mood, but again they did not find any arguments in the meeting with the opponent, who prevailed in the level of individual skill of the players. As a result - the fifth defeat in six matches of the group tournament.

There was no special tension in the game, the hosts acted casually and opened the score quite easily. Montero hit his head from close range, and the ball flew to him from Arthur, who tried unsuccessfully to prevent the Portuguese to play a combination in the penalty area.

Vorskla's defense did not work in the best way in the future. Miguel Luis scored with almost no resistance, and after a shot by Montero Dallku cut the ball into his own net. Several shots fired from Poltava from afar in response were not particularly dangerous.
