Football. Ua presents the announcement of the fights of the 8th round in the second ranked division of the country.

The Balkans - The Vanguard August 25. Dawn. them. Tropanets In this fight, two strong middle peasants come together, one of which is the absolute debutant of the league. At the same time, "Balkans" after some swinging made it clear that they do not intend to be lambs for slaughter. Success in recent matches only confirms the serious intentions of the team from the village of Zarya to gain a foothold in the first division. Guests do not spoil stability, alternating good duels with frankly failed. It seems that the experienced Alexander Kosevich will be able to adjust his wards to a difficult exit match, in which the Kramators will try to achieve the maximum result. However, the owners with such a turn of events are unlikely to agree.

Helios - Flint on the 25th of August. Kharkiv. Helios-Arena After a draw in Sumy, the "sunny" will struggle to take maximum in their native walls. Returning to his native Helios-Arena, Sergey Sizikhin's wards demonstrate high-quality football and not without reason are considered one of the favorites of the championship. However, stability is often not enough for Helios ... In Kremn, things are much worse. With the financing of the club, the situation is not yet fully understood, and the results of the Kremenchug collective show far from those that are expected of them by the leadership and the fans. In Kharkov, the team from the Poltava region will have a very hard time, given how much the leader of the attacks of Helios Sergey Kravchenko played in recent matches.

Volyn - Sumy on August 25. Lutsk. Avangard The meeting of representatives of the group of outsiders in Lutsk will be important for both rivals, primarily from the point of view of psychology. Both Luchane and Sumy began the season not in the best way, and now cherish the hope to get out of the quagmire. The hosts, by the way, for the reporting duel will certainly not be deprived of high-quality spectator support, because the club management made the entrance to the match free. Chances of Volhynia significantly adds to the presence of the most experienced midfielder Oleg Gerasimyuk, and the other players in the crook of the Crusaders, despite their relatively young age, have already sniffed the powder of the struggle at the highest level.

Rukh - Cherkassy Dnieper August 26. Vinniki. them. Markevich If the problems of the Cherkassy club were known long before the start of the new championship, the uncertain game of Rukh became an unpleasant surprise. The composition of Vinnytsy is very decent, even by the standards of the elite division, that's only with a set of points things are not very important. Cherkassane was initially considered a potential outsider, given the number of overtraces that took place at the club in early summer. Hence, the task of the wards of Alexander Kirilyuk is the struggle for survival, and this is provided that the team finishes before the end of the championship ... Mining Sport - Arsenal August 26. Gorishni Plavni. Youth Sergei Puchkov's team still can not boast of stable results, but in uncompromising miners can not refuse - two wins with five defeats in seven games played. But the "Gunners" have become a real pleasant discovery of the beginning of the season. In the leadership of the team Sergei Litovchenko initially believed not many, the more pleasant to reap the fruits of their own successes. Of course, in the Gorishnye Plains Arsenal will not be as easy as it might seem at first glance, however, in order to realize its ambitions, the Kiev club must strive to obtain the required three credits.

Poltava - Oilman on August 26. Poltava. Locomotive Poltava residents, strengthened by the most experienced Alexander Kovpak, are in the leading group, and, I must say, quite deservedly. The team of Anatoly Bessmertny demonstrates a nice football, which, among other things, gives the result. Akhtyrchans, in turn, are in fact rebuilding a new gaming ensemble, the first violin in which, incidentally, old timers. For example, the unfading Leonid Boyarintsev, who has already scored two goals. But the Captain of the Oilman is in the role of defender!.

Desna - The Pearl August 26. Chernigov. them. Gagarin All does not catch his game Chernihiv club. Either the non-admission to the elite has affected the team of Alexander Ryabokon, or just something went wrong in the game of the northerners, but the current sixth place is clearly not what the Desna leadership counted on. The Pearl has a different kind of problem. It seems that in the first division the team has quietly settled down, but leaving the coach's Denis Kolchin clearly does not add positive. Moreover, it is Kolchin Zhemchuzhina largely due to the success of the past season.

Ingulets - Obolon-Brovar on August 26. Petrovo. Ingulets Central match of the tour will take place in Petrovo, where the third and fifth teams of the current championship will come face to face. Ingulets will try to earn regular points, given what level of the game shows the leader of the attacks of the team Alexander Akimenko. The 31-year-old striker strikes goals at the opponents' gate with an enviable periodicity, and is quite capable of fighting for the title of the main scoring league. Obolonets also not a bast shita. After the starting slippage, the team of Oleg Mazurenko seems to have found his game, and now he is in the status of one of the favorites of the division.

Kolos - Nikolayev August 26. Kovalivka. Kolas Kovalivtsi this season began to contradictory, but, apparently, gradually come to their best shape. True, the previous meeting with the Balkans, the least lost to the debutant of the division, left more questions than the answers ... Nikolaev's position is more or less stable. Victory team Ruslan Zabransky alternates with defeats, and is fairly located on the equator of the standings. However, the ambitions of "shipbuilders" far exceed the status of the middle peasants.
