Today in Mariupol the rival on the final of the national Cup of Kiev "Dynamo" which won the ticket to a decisive match was defined a week ago.

The guests had some advantage in the first half. The wards of Yuri Maksimov, who due to disqualification watched the game from the stands, assumed a smaller marriage and more often visited the opponent's penalty area. Kulach, Putzlin, Stepaniuk, Chesnakov threatened the hosts' goal, but their shots missed the target or were blocked by defenders. When Kane shot from the penalty spot into the frame, Galchuk was on the spot.

Azov's counterattacks also posed a threat. In the middle of the half Riznyk parried Churko's shot, and before the break Mariupol opened the scoring. Gorbunov, receiving the ball in the middle of the field, approached the penalty line and scored from the bottom. Churko and Alyun were on the trajectory of the ball's flight, which probably disoriented the Vorskla goalkeeper. 1: 0.

From the beginning of the second half there was an open game. Both opponents were active in the attack, but the goal came only at the end of regular time. Referee Monzul determined a violation of the rules in the penalty area of ​​"Mariupol" by Tishchenko against Stepaniuk, and Kane equalized from the penalty spot.

In the last minutes of the second half, Vorskla dominated the field, but Poltava failed to score again and avoid overtime. In extra time, the score did not change, and the fate of the confrontation was decided in a series of penalties, with the expectation that Vorskla released to replace the reserve goalkeeper Isenko. The 16-year-old goalkeeper parried the shots of Kulakov, Ignatenko and Kornienko and led his team to the final. Vorskla for the second time in history will take part in the decisive match for the Cup of Ukraine.
