Vinnytsya 0 - 10 TERNOPILSKI (302322324)

7000 fans braved the pouring rain at Vinnytsya Dome. Olivier Vannier was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Szymon Lorbiecki and Niilo Küttmann. A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Vinnytsya. They fielded: Pasulko - Zhelezovskiy, Khapun, Siryj, Skoropad - Dumka, Sukhenko, Rudenko, Bezugliy - Moldavskiy, Grebinyuk.

TERNOPILSKI had chosen a strategic 3-4-3 formation. The following players had been chosen: Bidoglia - Pétry, Forstandlechner, Eder - Annink, Le Gallic, Shtepa, Okunev - Miceli, Negreckis, Sirko.

TERNOPILSKI seemed to prefer attacking in the middle. P. Siryj didn't let the weather get him down and made some great moves on the pitch in spite of the rain. TERNOPILSKI took the lead after 21 minutes making the score 0 - 1. V. Le Gallic placed the ball out of reach for the home side's keeper after a fine move, coming in from the left. Vinnytsya's A. Skoropad had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 26 minutes having been played. D. Drozdov was the replacement. After 28 minutes, TERNOPILSKI's P. Miceli burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 2. After 34 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for D. Sirko who increased TERNOPILSKI's lead to 0 - 3. Vinnytsya's V. Pasulko left the field after 36 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was M. Krasnoperov. The Vinnytsya captaincy was handed to E. Zhelezovskiy. It was a bad day for the usually speedy Y. Sukhenko. The mud seemed to slow him down. An indecisive keeper looked on as a free kick by TERNOPILSKI's V. Le Gallic put the visitors up 0 - 4 after 38 minutes. After this, you could see that the players of TERNOPILSKI were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. After 40 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed F. Pétry to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 5. It was 0 - 5 at the break. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by TERNOPILSKI, with 75 percent of the ball.

TERNOPILSKI increased their lead after 50 minutes when D. Sirko broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 6, much to the home crowd's dismay. The home crowd was not impressed when J. Eder came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 61 minutes. TERNOPILSKI were now up 0 - 7. The visitors' P. Miceli took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 65 minutes into the match. 0 - 8 for TERNOPILSKI. D. Sirko's speed was clear to see after 70 minutes, as he darted down the wing and released R. Negreckis who placed the ball into the back of the net to make the score 0 - 9. The referee signalled a penalty 73 minutes into the game following an offence which looked like it was outside the box. V. Le Gallic knocked it home to make the score 0 - 10. That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for V. Le Gallic. The home crowd cheered when, after 76 minutes, R. Negreckis's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day. TERNOPILSKI claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 77 percent.

Vinnytsya's top performer was clearly P. Siryj. I. Dumka on the other hand, had a terrible day. TERNOPILSKI's best player was V. Shtepa. However, A. Okunev made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 10.
