On the day when the main squad will play the second leg of the Champions League play-off round against Benfica in Lisbon, the U19 team played a match against the boys from Ingulets. Despite the away status of the fight for our team, it took place not in Petrov, in the Kirovograd region, but in Vite-Litovskaya at the Dynamo football club.
The wards of Igor Kostyuk had a high-quality preparation for the season, sparring both in Ukraine and went to two international tournaments, becoming bronze medalists in both the Czech Republic and Switzerland. The Dynamo team began to demonstrate a high level of preparation from the first minutes and by the middle of the first half they were winning with a devastating score.
For the first time, defender Kotukha managed to upset the opponent's goalkeeper, who received a pass in the center of the field, moved into the penalty area and shot at the goal - the ball jumped in front of the goalkeeper and flew into the corner.
The White-Blues doubled their advantage after the partners brought Gorbach to the goal with a brilliant pass, Igor beat the goalkeeper and sent the ball into the net from an acute angle.
A few minutes later, the third ball flew into the goal of Ingulets, when Yanchishin shot past the goalkeeper with a shot from the penalty area. And a little later, Matkevich also wrote down his last name in the protocol, after shooting from the right flank, hitting the goalkeeper in the opposite direction.
Let's add that in the "breaks" between goals, the goalkeeper of "Ingulets" still managed to save his team, as, for example, in cases with two hits by Matkevich at close range or when he reliably knocked the ball out with his fists after a free kick.
It is noteworthy that the nominal hosts, despite the colossal difference in class, did not sit back in defense, which created many free zones for the Dynamo team to develop their attacks, but the Ingulets players themselves tried to bother Ignatenko with long-range shots - however, the accuracy let down the players from Petrovo .
But in one case, the rival of the "white-blue" still found the moment to deliver an accurate blow. Matyuk received a pass on the penalty line, worked under his left foot and, without meeting resistance from the Dynamo team, shot right into the corner - Ignatenko, despite a desperate jump, could not save.
With the start of the second half, Dynamo got an excellent opportunity to increase their advantage again. The goalkeeper knocked down Gorbach in the penalty area, and the referee awarded a penalty. The victim himself undertook to execute the "verdict", but he could not beat Korogod from the 11-meter mark.
In the future, the "white-blue" continued to roll attacks after attacks on the opponent's possessions. Gorbach could have scored one more goal, but after a corner kick he hit the goalkeeper, Malysh also hit the goalkeeper from a long distance. The nominal hosts could also score, but Ignatenko did not allow the ball to fly into his goal again after a close-range shot.
The last minutes, given the hot weather, the teams spent at a calm pace, and Dynamo won a confident victory without any problems - 4:1.
