Later on, our team continued to take the initiative and create tension at the other team's goal. But Veres' defenders and goalkeeper acted reliably and managed to neutralize the threat. Despite all Kyiv's attempts, the spectators did not see any more goals before the half-time whistle.
In the second half, Balaba was close to doubling his team's lead when he struck a great free kick 22 meters from the goal, but the ball flew just over the goal. The hosts tried to threaten Surkis' goal, mainly after standard positions, in particular, corner kicks. Once Veres players took two corners in a row, but in the first case the ball was knocked out by the defenders, and in the second case goalkeeper Surkis made a reliable save.
But the Rivne team used their moment as efficiently as possible. The teammates brought Volchkov to the striking position with a great pass, and he skillfully realized a one-on-one with the Dynamo goalkeeper, leveling the score at 1-1.
At the end of the match, Veres was left in the minority when goalkeeper Kulyk received a red card for a foul against Osypenko and was sent off the field. But the visitors failed to realize their numerical advantage before the final whistle.
