VIDEO review of the match >>>
Turkey said goodbye to Dynamo in beautiful, finally sunny and dry weather. The line-up, which can probably be considered the main one at the moment, created the first chance in the 2nd minute: Karavayev joined the attack and hit a powerful shot from 18 metres into the back of the net. The goalkeeper made a great leap to clear the ball for a corner. Soon after, Brazhko scored twice: first from a free kick into the wall, then, after the rebound, he soared high above the goal. In terms of pace, it looked like Dynamo were already playing in a competitive mode.
"When Sheriff took the ball away, they tried to slow down the pace. It was difficult for them because they had only played their second match at the training camp. And somewhere in the middle of the half, the game went according to the Tiraspol scenario, the activity of Dynamo's "base" faded away, the game followed the traditional scenario for the training camp - sluggish and sad. Despite this, Kyiv could have opened the scoring just before the break. Vivcharenko sent a cross to the far corner of the goalkeeper's area, from there Karavayev crossed back and into the centre, where Buyalsky made a strong shot, but the goalkeeper managed to save it from 10 metres. Everything was done to the touch and very beautifully, except for the accuracy of the final shot.
Immediately after the break, again after Vivcharenko's shot, Voloshyn had a chance: he hit the far post in a rolling shot, strongly, accurately, but Silich somehow miraculously crossed the ball! Kyiv scored a goal in the 58th minute. Vanat beat Silich in the left part of the penalty area and passed to the 11-metre mark, from where Vitaliy Buyalsky fired into the empty net. 1:0. Kyiv managed their second goal in 20 minutes. Vivcharenko fired to the left, Buyalsky from the centre touched to the left to Nazar Voloshyn, who drove the ball under the crossbar from a sharp angle in the style of Rebrov. 2:0.
Tomorrow, Kyiv will return to the capital of Ukraine, where they will prepare at their club base for the first official match of 2024 - against Kharkiv's Metalist 1925 in the 18th round of the Ukrainian championship (25 February, 15:30).
