Igor Tsyganik, a 1+1 TV channel media employee and commentator, shared his forecast for the semi-final match of the Ukrainian Cup between Polissia and Vorskla.
Igor Tsyganik"An unexpected confrontation in the second semi-final of the Ukrainian Cup. The match should turn out to be quite interesting and combative, because reaching the final is extremely important for each team.
"Polissia is in a bad state right now. It is especially psychologically difficult for the team. The resignation of Yuriy Kalitvintsev, a decline in results, a winless streak in 2024, where the Zhytomyr team has four defeats in a row. The game against Vorskla is a chance for Polissia to improve their situation, and the team's attitude to the game is expected to be particularly serious.
As for Poltava, I liked Vorskla in the match against Dynamo Kyiv. Yes, they were unlucky to lose with such a score (1-5), because they did not use their chances, while Kyiv did the opposite.
I think both teams will play quite cautiously - a ticket to the final is at stake. I know that Polissia is tasked with winning the Ukrainian Cup, so I'll venture to guess that the main time of the match will end in a draw with the exact score 0-0, and it will be Polissia who will go further," said Tsyganik.
