The 12th round match ended in Lviv UPL — Miner defeated Chernomorets (2:1).
Marino Pusic’s team opened the scoring in the 17th minute thanks to a precise strike from Alexander Zubkov. Almost immediately, the Odessa residents restored the status quo – the score was equalized by Shakhtar graduate Artem Gabelok.
The miners regained the lead before the break – Artem Bondarenko scored the sixth goal this season.
The score remained 2:1 until the final whistle. Thanks to this victory, Shakhtar bypassed Polesie and rose to 3rd place in the standings (the Zhytomyr club has a match in reserve and will play it tomorrow against Alexandria).
