If we consider the goals of the current Dynamo players against other clubs, then the best scorer here is Oleksandr Karavaev. He regularly scored against «Chornomorets» during his time with «Zorya». Karavaev scored 5 goals against the Odesa team, finding the net in four consecutive seasons — in two matches of the 2015/16 season and one match in the 2016/17, 2017/18, and 2018/19 seasons. Three goals are attributed to Oleksandr Pikhalyonok, who scored for «Dnipro-1» — twice in the 2021/22 season and once in the 2022/23 season.
Eduardo Guerrero, a Panamanian player, scored twice against the «sailors» while playing for «Zorya» of Luhansk — in the 2022/23 season and... in the 2nd round of the current season. For «Zorya», Dynamo players Oleksandr Tymchyk (he scored in the 2018/19 season) and former Chornomorets player Vladyslav Kabayev (goal in the 2021/2022 season) also found the net against the sailors.

Also, current Dynamo player Oleksandr Andriievskyi scored a goal (from a penalty) against the «white-blues» while playing for «Chornomorets» in the 2016/17 season. Midfielder Ivan Petriak twice upset the «sailors» while defending the colors of Luhansk's «Zorya» — in the 2015/16 and 2016/17 seasons, while Oleksii Khoblenko scored against the Odesites while playing for Cherkasy's LNZ last season.
