Pasich came to secure his goalkeeper and brought the ball out of the gate. Over time, Roman Sanzhar's wards managed to level the game and tried to exert pressure on Makharadze's possessions, but they were not able to open the opponent's defense, trying to compensate for this with distant shots on the goal, but in this component the Donetsk team did not succeed. Toward the end of the first half, the guests got an excellent opportunity to score, earning a dangerous free kick, but Ksenz did not make the most successful direct hit on goal. At the break the team went, and did not open an account.
Immediately after the break, Sanjar released on the field G. Pasich and Sznodei in order to intensify the attack, after they appeared on the field, Olimpic was more in possession of the ball, occupying someone else's half of the field, but this did not bring any dividends, as the Donetsk team could not open the opponent's defense, which acted fairly competently and gave little reason to Makharadze to enter the game, the guests could only rely on mistakes from the opponent, but those in the reporting match was not.
In the second half of the second 45-minute wards Yu. Vernaduba still managed to withdraw the game from their half of the field, moving to someone else, the most active in the Luhansk team was replaced by Kochergin, who dispersed his team, but before the attacks on the gate they reached rarely, and the shots were not very dangerous, except for impact itself Kochergin at the very end of the meeting, after which the ball whizzed next to the pole.
