Despite the goal of Artem Dovbik, the last game of the Dnieper in the ULP was overshadowed by the behavior of the fans.
Duel on the Dnepr Arena attracted a large audience. The reason to come to the stadium was weighty, but very sad - the Dnieper for the first time in history leaves the ULP.
The opponent of the Dnipro was Volyn, who formed the company in the basement of the standings. But before the match begins, the fans lit pyrotechnics, than a little delayed the start of the last fight in this championship.
The game was quite interesting, because the teams were not constrained by any tournament layouts. It is expected that the advantage was with the Dnipro, who owned the ball and created moments.
Volhyn answered seldom, but also had a good chance. What is only the moment Petrova, who beat Lunin, but did not get into an empty net.
In the middle of the half, Dnepr embodied an advantage in the goal scored. Dovbik distinguished himself, who sent a ball into the corner of the goal with a beautiful header.
Before the break, the game was still interrupted for five minutes due to smoke. It seems that the fans tried to delay the moment of the farewell of the Dnieper with the elite division. As a result, the whistle recorded a minimal advantage of the Dnipro, which could well have scored more, but lacked mastery in the decisive stage.
Unfortunately for Dnipro players, they had to say goodbye to ULP even before the time. Already at the very beginning of the second half, alongside Volyn's goalkeeper Roman Zhmurko, a firecracker exploded.
The health threat of the goalkeeper was very serious and the referee immediately completed the match.
None of the teams protested against this decision. That's how the Dnieper left the elite division - the active support of the fans turned into a possible technical defeat.
