The account was opened by Budkivsky, who accurately scored with a header from the transfer of the former Dynamo player Kalitvintsev. Kyiv residents spent the last minutes in the majority after Bezborodko's removal and managed to win back. Hitchenko played with his hand in his own penalty area, and referee Pashal appointed an 11-meter penalty after watching the video replay. Tsygankov scored from the mark.
