Football. Ua represents the announcement of the match of the 3rd round of the ULP between Steel and the Miner.
17:00, Dnepr, the Meteor Stadium. Arbiter - Ivan Bondar. Live broadcast on Football 2.
Kamenskaya Steel was the main sensation of starting tours of ULL. Not possessing a solid selection of players, Melikyan's wards took 6 points in the matches with Zarey and Chernomorets.
In connection with these exploits, the fans have already nicknamed the team "Ukrainian Leicester". Yes, after two rounds at the head of UPP Steel and Kiev Dynamo - an unexpected tandem.
Impressions also add to the fact that these victories can not be called "rebounds" or not obtained in the case. Yakimiv's fantastic goal in the first match is, of course, luck, but in the match with Chernomorets, Steel looked much fresher and better finished than the Sailors. Now it's time for a more complex test.
The steelworkers are to receive the Miner who will not arrive in a better mood. Play in an important match Dynamo and break the scoring series, which lasted a couple of years - it is unlikely that the Miners counted on this development after winning the Super Cup and an easy game with Vorskla.
Preparation of the Miner for the match was in full force, with the exception of one loss - Maxim Malyshev suffered damage in the Super Cup match and is still being restored.
Where more important news will be the return of Fred, who has finally departed the disqualification and will be able to play in the match with Steel.
For Gornyakov the upcoming game is not only a chance to win back for the defeat in the last round.
Steel is ahead of the Miner by three points, which means that at this stage the teams are competing for high places. It's clear that in the future Steel will go down, but to lose points in this match, Shakhtar clearly should not.
Approximate compositions:.
Steel: Penkov - Tymchik, Danielyan, Grachev, Meskhi - Mikhailichenko, E. Malakyan, G. Malakyan, Kuzyk - Mysik - Shchebetun Shakhtar: Pyatov - Srna, Krivtsov, Rakitsky, Ismaili - Patrick, Stepanenko - Marlos, Tyson, Bernard - Ferreira Injured: Malyshev (Miner) 2: 0 forecast.
