A new lottery started in Lviv, where the Carpathians accepted Zirka.
Both teams underwent a lot of changes in the compositions. The most active summer team, perhaps, were just the Carpathians, who invited a number of foreign players.
Zirka, in large measure, lost important performers and the personnel potential of the Monareva team - one of the weakest in the league.
The start of the match confirmed this statement, because in the first five minutes the Carpathians created a couple of dangerous moments and opened an account. Ksenz gave the cutting pass to Chachua, who was already striking at an almost empty goal.
After the scoring goal Carpathians combined, owned the ball, but dangerous moments did not create a lot.
At some point, the hosts relaxed and brought themselves a goal. Ex-player Zirki Pereira played his hand in his own penalty area, and Zagalsky without problems realized a penalty.
After the break, the Carpathians played more active and pressed Zirka to her penalty area. Lvivans ruined a lot of standards, which could well end in goals.
Zirka, in turn, acted much easier, but also more effective. As a result, both teams got about an equal number of moments, and Zirka and at the end of the match could come forward, but the ball missed the bar after the cutoff protection of the Carpathians.
Perhaps, the Carpathians were more focused on the victory, but the coaching staff of Navarro will have to work to translate the plans into reality.
Well, for Zirki draw - a good result in a difficult match.
Carpathians - Zirka 1: 1.
