Today there were four matches of the 21st round, in which both contenders for European Cups and fighters for survival competed.

After yesterday's victory of "Desna" temporarily moved to the fourth step "Dawn". However, thanks to the victory over Ingulets, Viktor Skrypnyk's wards again bypassed Chernihiv. Petrovtsi lost a goal moment in each of the halves, after which Luhansk intercepted the initiative. And if in the first 45 minutes the black and whites failed to score, then in the second Yurchenko closed the shot of Khomchenovsky, and Junior Reyes scored his debut goal for Zorya after a fifth pass from Kabayev.

Vorskla scored three points much harder. In the first half, Lviv had a clear advantage, in the 15th minute they even scored a penalty, but Riznyk parried Alvaro's shot. Later, the goalkeeper of the national team of Ukraine had to save his team several more times.

However, after the break, the reshuffle from Yuri Maksimov worked - Poltava immediately came forward. First, Kane scored in the near corner from the selection in someone else's penalty area, and then he assisted Kulach, who scored the 10th goal in the Premier League and caught up with Dynamo Tsygankov at the head of the scorers' race. At the end of the match, Lviv had a lot of moments, after a corner Dovhy scored, but the "citizens" were not destined to get points. Therefore, Vorskla continues to chase Zorya and Desna.

Poltava goalkeeper Riznyk, who is in March called to the location of the national team, played a full match and scored a penalty.

Lviv's failure was taken advantage of by its neighbors from Rukh, who left the last step as a result of the victory over Minai. The game seemed nervous, and the main events took place in the last third of it. After 66 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defense allowed Kuharuk to get through. Later, Kondrakov consolidated the advantage of the hosts from the penalty spot, and in the compensated time for the second yellow card the Minoan Malian Bagayoko was withdrawn.

In the last match of the round, "Olympic" continued its series of defeats. With the total advantage of Kolos in the first half, Donetsk managed to score after a great race performed by Kargbo. For a long time, Yuri Kalitvintsev's wards kept the advantage thanks to Kichak's saves.

However, after the removal of the Ivorian debutant Ekra at the beginning of the second half, the Olympians became much harder. First, Kostyshyn equalized the score with a penalty kick, and in the 87th minute Milko after a corner brought the Blacksmiths victory. Currently, Kolos lags behind Vorskla's fifth position by only one point.
