In the second half, the situation on the field has not changed, and the main question was how many more goals will be scored by representatives of the Premier League. In the 54th minute Sitnikov saved the team after a shot by Moraes from close range. However, the next dangerous moment at the gate of "Ingulec" led to the fourth goal: after a counterattack, Tete gave a pass to Solomon, and the joker Paulo Fonseca hit the far corner. For the Israeli newcomer, it was also Shakhtar's first goal.

Then the orange and blacks had a few more chances to increase the advantage. Sytnikov managed to shoot Alan Patrick, Ismaili scored, but did not avoid a minimal offside, and Wellington Nem shot from a sharp angle into the post. Ingulets found the strength to respond in the form of Shchedry's strike on Shevchenko's goal and Ilya Kovalenko's dangerous shot from the standard.
