Premier League: Vorskla wins Prestige Cup, Arsenal-Kiev leaves elite division directly
In the last round of the Ukrainian Championship, each of the three matches of the teams of the second six had an important tournament value.
All participants were motivated - Vorskla and Desna competed for the Prestige Cup in absentia, other clubs tried to avoid direct relegation (Chornomorets and Arsenal-Kyiv) or transition matches (Olympic and Karpaty).
Vorskla had an advantage over Desna due to the best results in face-to-face meetings, so it was enough for Poltava to perform no worse than Chernihiv. And Vitaliy Kosovsky's wards even overfulfilled the task by drawing with Olimpik, while Desna lost to Chornomorets. Of course, the Prestige Cup for last year's bronze medalist is not such a big achievement. But, given the long game crisis of the team at the end of last - at the beginning of this year, we must pay tribute to her for the fact that she was able to regain confidence and remember the taste of victory.
Directly flies to the first league "Arsenal-Kyiv". The "gunners" could only count on a miracle to leave the last line, but it did not happen. Kievans did not even fulfill their part of the task, losing at home to Karpaty, and they would not be saved by the hypothetical help of Desna.
As for the Carpathians themselves, the people of Lviv were close to being saved. They led in Kyiv for a long time with a difference of two goals, and if Vorskla kept the winning score in the game with Olimpik, it would be the Olympians who would have to play transitional matches. But Igor Klimovsky's team survived in Poltava thanks to a double by Degtyarev, who came on as a substitute.
So, have transitional matches for the right to play in the next season in the Premier League will meet: "Chernomorets" - "Kolos", "Carpathians" - "Volyn". The matches will take place on June 4 and 8.
