In the first round, Kovalivka inflicted a painful defeat on the White and Blues (3:4), so Ihor Kostiuk's team was doubly determined for this game.
But the guests managed to open the scoring in the 12th minute. During one attack, Dynamo's defenders blocked one shot, Surkis parried the second, but could not do anything about the third in the near corner - 0: 1.
Kyiv managed to get back into the game closer to the end of the first half. Gusev made a cross from the right flank, the ball flew to Osypenko, who scored from 10 metres out past the goalkeeper - 1-1.
In the 57th minute, Dynamo took the lead. Ponomarenko passed to the right corner of the penalty area to Pashko, who received the ball in return and then beautifully curled the ball into the corner of the goal, scoring his 22nd goal in the youth championship this season - 2: 1.
It seemed that now it would be easier for the White and Blues to psychologically cope. But soon the score was equal again. In the 62nd minute, after a shot from the right flank, Zakharkiv scored on goal, Surkis parried it into the post, from which the ball bounced into the field. Kryvoruchko grabbed the rebound, cleared Kotukha and scored from close range past our goalkeeper - 2-2.
And six minutes later, the guests were ahead again. After a free kick, Dynamo failed to knock the ball far, they launched a second-pace attack, and after a pass from the right flank, Kanaev, who was left unattended, scored from close range into the corner - 2: 3.
There was still plenty of time left before the final whistle, but Ihor Kostiuk's men unfortunately failed to make the most of their chances. As a result, the defeat pushed Dynamo to second place. In the next round, the White and Blues will face Shakhtar, and they must win to regain the lead.
