The fourth, last meeting between Shakhtar and Dynamo in the current championship ended again with the victory of the Pitmen, who beat the White and Blues in the previous three matches of the tournament.

Despite the fact that Shakhtar has won the championship title in the last round, the match between the two greats of Ukrainian football has not lost its fundamental significance. And for Kyiv, who are fighting for second place, the result was especially important.

At the same time, for various reasons, the starting lineups of both rivals were far from optimal. In particular, Dynamo could not count on Popov, Mykolenko, Shabanov, Tsygankov and Shepelev, and in the center of the defense was Sirota, who played in the Premier League for the first time. Donetsk residents were left without Khocholava, Tete and Kovalenko, and they also had their debutant - Brazilian Vitao. At the same time, Marlos and Tyson started the game in reserve.

In the first half, acting loose and relaxed, the orange and blacks created sharpness without even turning on maximum speeds. The account was opened after a mistake by Sidorchuk, who lost the ball while leaving his penalty area. Bolbat ricocheted into the post, and Stepanenko was lucky with the rebound. 0: 1. The second goal was scored by Konoplyanka, who, having received a pass from Solomon, twisted the ball under the rack in his own style. There were opportunities for shots in the white and blue, but, for example, Sidorchuk did not hit the ball properly, and Tsitaishvili instead of breaking through the goal, made a pass to a partner, which led to offside.    

However, Dynamo scored one goal at the beginning of the second half. Donetsk goalkeeper Trubin after Shaparenko's shot bounced the ball in front of him, and Verbych played well in the finish. And then De Pen, taking advantage of Trubin's reckless exit from the gate, punched past him after a pass from the depths of the Orphan. 2: 2.

But the balance did not last long. As soon as he came on as a substitute, Tyson gave the assist to Alan Patrick. 2: 3 - with such a score Kyiv lost second match in a row.

The players of both national teams of Ukraine took part in the game: Dynamo players Boyko, Sydorchuk, Buyalsky (came on as a substitute in the 84th minute), Karavaev (came on as a substitute in the 64th minute) and Pitmen Matvienko, Bolbat (yellow card, substituted in the 54th minute), Stepanenko (goal, yellow card, replaced in the 77th minute), Konoplyanka (goal, replaced in the 77th minute), Moraes (replaced in the 77th minute), Marlos (substituted for 77th minute).
