Ingulets goalkeeper Alexey Palamarchuk parried the fifth penalty in a row
IN Poltava the opening match of the 15th round took place UPL — Vorskla suffered a crushing defeat at home Ingulets (0:3).
The guests opened the scoring already in the 19th second of the match – 20-year-old midfielder Ivan Losenko, who plays for Ingulets on loan from Shakhtar, scored.
Vasily Kobin’s team doubled their advantage in the 14th minute – Alexander Pyatov twisted several opponents in the Poltava penalty area and struck low, irresistibly for Pavel Isenko.
In the very opening of the second half, Vorskla got a chance to reduce the gap in the score, earning a penalty. The most experienced Alexander Sklyar approached the point and failed to beat Alexey Palamarchuk, who parried the fifth penalty in a row.
