“Dynamo” started the match successfully, opening the scoring as early as the 3rd minute: Dubinchak made a great pass to send Vanat one-on-one with Palamarchuk, who confidently beat the goalkeeper in the box and sent the ball into the empty net — 1:0.
But “Ingulec” not only didn’t “shut down” in their half of the pitch, but also attacked boldly. Moreover, it was the guests who recorded the first accurate shot of the match — this happened a minute before Vanat’s goal, and Bushchan had to stretch out to reach the ball that was heading for the bottom corner of his goal. On the 13th minute of the match, Kislensko headed the ball from the goal line, closing a flank pass, and the ball, bouncing off the pitch, flew over the crossbar.
However, “Dynamo” also had a shot from outside the box during that segment of the match — Kabaev struck from the left, but Palamarchuk played confidently. An even more dangerous shot was taken by Shaparenko from about 14 meters: the ball was sent in an arc and ultimately flew just past the post.
But moments are moments, and the next goal was scored by “Dynamo” again. Kabaev crossed from the right flank, and Kabaev, winning the position from Pushkaryov, struck from about six meters, driving the ball into the net of “Ingulec’s” goal — 2:0. Moreover, a few minutes later the score nearly became larger: this time Tymchyk fired a cannon shot from the right side of the penalty area (by the way, the assist came again from Karavaev), but due to a deflection the ball changed its trajectory and didn’t hit the target.
It seemed that nothing predicted problems for “Dynamo”, but in the 34th minute “Ingulec” managed to close the gap. After a corner kick and a subsequent pass, the ball ended up with Kislensko, who sent it into the far bottom corner of Bushchan’s goal with a shot from about 12 meters — 2:1.
However, the last word in the first half still belonged to “Dynamo”: in the 39th minute of the match, Shaparenko burst into the penalty area of “Ingulec” from the left and shot — Stanislav Malysh tried to intercept and redirect the ball to a corner, but ended up hitting his own goal with a header — 3:1. And just before the halftime whistle, Shaparenko found Vanat in the guests' penalty area with a slicing pass, and he managed to hit the near corner of the goal — 4:1.
“Ingulec” started the second half actively, and this led to a goal. In the 57th minute of the match, Mohylnyy easily passed through the “Dynamo” penalty area first Vanat and then Bilovar, crossed along the goal line, where Mikhavko failed to intercept, accidentally sending the ball into the net — 4:2.
“Dynamo” immediately responded with dangerous shots from inside the penalty area by Buyalsky and Vanat, but in both cases Palamarchuk saved his team. However, “Ingulec” was also very close to a third goal — it was Vilivald who headed the ball after a corner kick, and Bushchan managed to reach the ball right on the goal line.
Well, the next goal occurred in the 73rd minute of the match. Palamarchuk dealt with Shaparenko’s shot, but deflected the ball right to Vanat, who played back to Shaparenko, who hit the target on the second attempt — 5:2.
But “Dynamo” did not stop there, continued to attack and create pressure on “Ingulec's” goal. However, the score on the scoreboard did not change anymore.
After this victory, “Dynamo” continues to share the first and second place in the league table of the Ukrainian Championship with “Alexandria,” leading the third-placed Zhytomyr “Polissya” by four points.
In the next round, “Dynamo” will host “Polissya”. This match will take place next Sunday, November 10, in Kyiv at the “Dynamo” stadium named after Valery Lobanovsky (kickoff — at 18:00). Before that, on Thursday, November 7, the Dynamo players will play in Hamburg in the 4th round of the group stage of the Europa League against the Hungarian “Ferencváros.”
