Goals of Dmitry Kopytov and Yuri Klimchuk brought steelmakers a victory over Alexandria (2: 0).

Saturday's game day was opened by the meeting of Steel and Alexandria. Both teams changed somewhat after the winter break in terms of staffing. From the first minutes, opponents did not demonstrate a high pace of the game, but alternately owned the initiative. Attacks team Sharan looked more keenly, but nothing fatal for steelmakers did not end. The hosts, in turn, the danger came from the Kuzyk and Zaderaki, which showed an excellent speed.

At the end of thirty minutes of the game, Steel had a good opportunity to open an account, but Zaderaki did not get an accented kick from the penalty. Guests tried to create their own chance at the end of the half time, but the defense of Steel easily coped with all attacks, so the team left for the break with a "dry" score on the scoreboard. Sharan before the second half withdrew from the game Ponomar, and his place was taken by more creative Grytsuk.

Alexandria actively started the halftime, and Vasily Grytsuk could open an account, but Herman Penkov showed an excellent reaction and rescued the team after hitting a slaughter position. The hosts immediately responded with a solo passage and a kicking blow to the Kuzyka, but Pankiv did not experience any significant problems. The territorial advantage was on the side of the Alexandrians, but the steelworkers counterattacked quite well.

The guests tried to return to the game, but all their attacks were broken against the compact defense of Steel.

As a result, steelworkers gained three points and were able to rise from the last place.
