The Premier League. Shakhtar and Karpaty strong-willed wins, Konoplyanka's debut for the Miners

After the break caused by the matches of the national teams, the matches of the Ukrainian championship among the teams of the Premier League resumed. Three matches of the 7th round were played today.

For Shakhtar and Oleksandriya, the meetings with Zorya and Dnipro-1, respectively, were the last breakdown on the eve of the start of the group tournaments of the current European Cups. The Pitmen will meet in the Champions League with Manchester City next Wednesday, and Vladimir Sharan's wards will have their debut match in the main draw of the Europa League with Wolfsburg on Thursday.

The leader of the championship made his fans worry, but in the end he won a super-strong victory. Twice successfully using pressure, the players of "Dawn" after the 35th minute led by two goals. The Orange and Blacks gradually came to their senses and eventually upset the Luhansk goalkeeper Shevchenko three times. But at the end of the game, the guests made the score equal again - from the transfer of Cheberko with a shot from the penalty area to the near corner, Lednev scored. But the last word was left for Shakhtar. Ukrainian national team midfielder Konoplyanka, who returned to his homeland after playing in Spain and Germany and made his debut for Shakhtar today, was involved in the decisive goal in the match, giving a productive pass to Moraes.

Shakhtar players who were called up for the September training camp of the national team of Ukraine took part in the match: Pyatov, Bolbat (goal pass), Kryvtsov, Matvienko, Stepanenko (yellow card), Marlos (goal), Moraes (two goals), Konoplyanka ( came on in the 46th minute, goal pass), Kovalenko (came on in the 78th minute).

Oleksandriya's meeting with Dnipro-1 was held in a different way, without many moments, although the hosts, who have a hard time scoring goals this season, still attacked more sharply. This time the case helped the Alexandrians to open an account. After a pass from the flank, Lopyryonok stopped the ball so badly that a perfect discount came out for Dovhy. It is worth noting the replacement of one of the leaders of "Alexandria" Kovalets, who did not play for almost a month due to injury. It was from his pass that Sitalo scored the home team's second goal.

As part of "Alexandria" the whole match was played by goalkeeper Pankiv, who called to the national team for matches against Lithuania in Nigeria. 

Another match took place in Lviv, where Roman Sanjar made his debut as the head coach of Karpaty in a game against Vorskla. The debut of the 24th coach in the history of the club's performances in the elite division was successful. Poltava opened the scoring after a mistake by Nazarina, who gave the ball to Baenko. Lviv played from a penalty awarded for the game by Chesnakov. And in the end, Martins after the corner kick brought the "Lions" a strong-willed victory.
