Participants of the second mini semi-final -the tournament for a place in the UPL gave fans incredible intrigue. And the unsinkable Minai won, who will now play with the Left Bank in the final.
The opponents took turns taking the lead. Epicenter quickly opened the scoring, shot on goal more often and seemed to have taken control of the game. But Minaj equalized before the break, and then took the lead – there were few who doubted that the more experienced club would not let their game slip away. Moreover, in the second half I played calmer and more confidently.
But mistakes in their own penalty area cost the Transcarpathians two missed goals – both were scored with headers from the goalkeeper’s area. It is difficult to withstand such a knockdown – but Minaj managed to do it, he found the strength for the final assault – and for another return goal, also after a lobbed serve.
For the remaining time, the Transcarpathians continuously stormed the opponent’s goal, but were unable to change the score. Well, then there was a penalty shootout, in which everyone scored except Mironyuk, who hit the post. He opened the scoring in the match, and he also closed the intrigue…
