“DYNAMO” (Kyiv, Ukraine) — “CORVINUL” (Romania) — 0:0
Red cards: Tymchyk (80)
“Dynamo”: 51.Morhun — 18.Tymchyk, 4.Popov, 34.Zakharchenko, 2.Vivcharenko — 6.Brazhko, 25.Yatsyk — 17.Torres (45.Bragaru, 63), 29.Buialskyi (C), 9.Voloshyn — 3.Supryaha (39.Gerrero, 60).
“Corvinul” (starting lineup): 1.Blaga, 34.Padurariu, 30.Manolache, 6.Lycha, 98.Velisar, 23.Karaus, 20.Ribeiro, 7.Bratu, 10.Neacsu, 19.Pirvulescu, 14.Buziuch.
The first half of this match, overall, was dominated by “Dynamo”, but it did not lead to any problems for “Corvinul’s” defense. Yes, in the 20th minute, Torres, after a pass from Buialskyi, hit the crossbar with a shot from the edge of the penalty area, but the Romanian team had also conducted a counterattack prior to that, which ended with the ball hitting the post of the Kyiv goal. Furthermore, at the end of the half, there was a one-on-one chance with Morhun—luckily, the Dynamo goalkeeper saved his team. In short, the first half of the match left mixed impressions in terms of content. And the score remained 0:0 on the scoreboard.
The second half did not bring any changes to the game. Except that “Dynamo’s” advantage was not as obvious: “Corvinul” managed to give the Kyiv side a fight. There were no chances, just like in the first half. In fact, we can only note a long-range shot at “Dynamo’s” goal, after which the ball hit the crossbar. So, ultimately, the match ended in a completely fair score of 0:0.
Let’s add that their next sparring match in the training camp in Austria will be held tomorrow, July 16. This time, the opponent for the Kyiv team will be the Croatian “Osijek”.
