The last matches of the 8th round of Prem'Air leagues were held by clubs that took part in European Cup matches this week. Moreover, Dynamo, which was the most successful among the Ukrainian representatives in the European arena, gave the most convincing result today.

Shakhtar coach Luis Castro has refrained from a significant rotation since defeats from "Manchester City". In Chernihiv, only two other players played in the match against Desna compared to Wednesday's match: Marcos Antonio and Tete replaced Alan Patrick and Solomon in the midfield.

The Pitmen scored three points thanks to a goal by Marlos, assisted by Tyson. But in general, the advantage of the champion of Ukraine over the opponent was not as convincing as the spectators are used to in most matches of the domestic calendar. The Desna players proved that it was not in vain that they occupied the second row in the table on the eve of the match. In the last round they were beat Dynamo, and today they forced Shakhtar to play on defense in the second half. However, Donetsk did not spend extra effort to change the course of the match, and did not settle for a minimal victory.

Shakhtar players took part in the match. called for the October gathering national team of Ukraine: Pyatov, Bolbat (yellow card), Kryvtsov, Matvienko, Stepanenko, Marlos (goal), Moraes (yellow card), Konoplyanka (came on for 86 minutes).

As for Dynamo, Oleksiy Mykhailychenko, except for the winner match with Malmo, we had to take into account the postponed match of the 4th round with Mariupol, which will take place next Wednesday, when determining the lineup for the game with Vorskla. Therefore, apparently, the rotation from the coach of the white and blues was much larger than that of his colleague from Shakhtar. Only five places in the "start" remained - Shabanov, Mykolenko, Sidorchuk, Shepelev and Tsygankov.

Well, it seems that the mentioned victory in the Europa League, which became the first for the team in almost two months, really united the players. Today, Kyivans showed excellent physical condition and dexterity during the completion of the attacks, sending five dry balls to Vorskla in Poltava. The hosts tried to play outdoor football with the white and blues, came out of defense at the expense of short and medium passes, for which they paid. However, in general, the positive tone of the match for the guests was somewhat spoiled by the injuries of Burda and Shepelev.

The game was attended by players of white and blue, who were called to the October national team of Ukraine: Burda (replaced by 53 minutes), Mykolenko (two goals, yellow card), Karavayev, Tsygankov (goal, two goals), Buyalsky ( came in to replace 38 minutes into the game, scoring the XNUMX - XNUMX goal.

And finally, "Alexandria", which started in the Europa League with defeat of "Wolfsburg", today parted ways with Kolos.
