In connection with the start of the spring part of the European competition, the two best Ukrainian teams of the new millennium do not have as much time for a banal break between games. Then, already three days after the triumphant trip to Israel for the match against Maccabi Tel Aviv, Donetsk Shakhtar was forced to throw himself fully into the events in the domestic arena, where Luis Castro’s charges were expected to face a match in home within the 15th round of the Ukrainian Premier League against Lviv Rukh.
In general, the reigning champion of the country has already successfully used his maximum points allowed for defeat in the second half of the national championship season, having played in the opening match of 2021 in a draw against Kolos (0: 0). The Kyiv Dynamo were only pleased with such a gift from their main rival, as the gap between the clubs was already three points in favor of the “blue and white”. Rukh, in turn, managed to take points away from Poltava Vorskla (1: 1), so he left for the Ukrainian capital in a somewhat euphoric mood.
Ivan Fedik’s team is now in pretty solid shape. In any case, Shakhtar Donetsk after the game of reports can give an extremely glowing assessment to their rivals. Rukh really made the Pitmen nervous when he reserved the right to create the first dangerous moment of the match. Klimchuk’s shot from a semi-circle near the penalty area was blocked by Vitao, but the rebound reached the center of Trubin’s possessions, after which Kukharevich fired away from the left post.
The moment lost by the guests was a signal for the Castro team to go on the attack, thus successfully meeting the efforts of Marlos. The number 11 pushed the ball on Tete’s play to the right flank of the penalty area from the center zone, after which the Brazilian passed Bandura on a false swing and fired into the empty goal. A quick goal at the start allowed the Pitmen to realize their original idea of low-cost football in physical terms, giving their opponents a chance to show themselves in attack.
Rukh had several good approaches to other people’s possessions, but Kuharevich on the edge still couldn’t catch the ball for the finishing blow. The danger from the Rukh players came when they caught the Donetsk team in a one-on-one dribble, after which they opened the space between the lines. The miner, with difficulty, but survived a difficult stretch before the break, when the team rarely held on to the game, after which he broke into the second half with an accidental penalty in the opposite goal.
In the 57th minute, Karasyuk managed to pull on Vitao’s shirt while taking a free kick from the right wing, which the referees could only see in the VAR. A penalty in such conditions could not be avoided, and Maicon, who promised to execute it, struck exactly in the lower right corner. The “gift” from the rivals was received by the hosts in an extremely positive way, after which the Shakhtar began to smother Rukh in their extremely friendly control embrace on the other side.
Until the end of regulation time, Luis Castro tried to make several substitutions, but they did not significantly affect the course of the fight. Apparently injury time seemed too bland for goalkeeper Rukh Alexander Bandura as he exited the penalty area down the right wing, where he tried to get ahead of Kornienko’s pull, but simply flew into the opponent’s body with full weight. bodily. The VAR came into play for the second time, leaving Balakin no choice but to remove the guest footballer.
In the next round, Luhansk Zarya will visit Donetsk Shakhtar, and Rukh will go to an away match against Kolos Kovalevsky.
