Imad Ashour’s team suffered their first defeat in the championship
The central match of the 12th round has ended UPL — Alexandria minimally beat at home Polesie (1:0).
The only and winning goal was scored in the 83rd minute. Bezerra passed the ball to Evgeniy Smirny, who irresistibly shot into the bottom corner of Evgeniy Volynets’ goal from 15 meters away.
Thus, Polesie suffered its first defeat this season – previously, Imad Ashur’s team had six wins and four draws. The Zhytomyr club is 4th in the standings – following the results of this round, Shakhtar overtook it.
Alexandria, in turn, single-handedly topped the standings – Ruslan Rotan’s team scored 29 points. Dynamo can catch up with them if they beat the championship outsider Ingulets at home tonight.
In the next round of the UPL, Alexandria will host Karpaty at home on November 9, and Polesie will play at home against Dynamo a day later.
