The representatives of the third-ranked Ukrainian division were the first to go on winter vacation. The break in the championship will be long, because the rivalry will resume on April 8 next year.

In the last round before the vacation, the clear favorite, "Niva" (Buzova), made sure to further increase the advantage over the pursuers. By the way, in the away match against Chaika, the head coach of the Buziv team, Serhiy Karpenko, was somewhat intrigued by not releasing the best scorer of the competition, Ivan Somov, into the starting line-up. And, despite the game advantage in the first half, the players of "Niva" did not manage to open the score. But Somov should have appeared on the field immediately after the break, as everything quickly fell into place. The restless Somov scored himself and made an assist to Andriy Holovatenko. As a result, Buzova won another major victory — 4:0 and strengthened its leading position, remaining, moreover, the only team of masters in Ukrainian football that goes without losses.

Too bad that her teammates from Vinnytsia, who were noticeably added in October, failed to win in Khust. The interest in this confrontation was fueled by the fact that Khusta's manager Volodymyr Tsytkin used to lead the Podolians. And it was the Transcarpathians who played more for victory, because they not only took the lead after Vadym Mardeev's strike, but also controlled the course of events on the field. However, the loss of concentration already in the compensated time cost the hosts dearly: after serving a corner kick in the commotion near the goal, the visitors' stopper Yevhenii Moroz corrected the ball's flight to the net. 1:1. The people of Vinnytsia save themselves from defeat, but let Buzova slip away even more.
