At the opening stage, the teams exchanged lost moments. Zakarpattia’s Korablin hit the crossbar from the penalty area on the right. The capital team’s forward Sukhoruchko beat Minai’s goalkeeper Bandura with a rebound.
As it turned out, the Left Bank forward was taking aim. The Storks opened the scoring thanks to a set piece. The goalkeeper parried Banada’s shot from the far post after a corner, but Sukhoruchko made a successful finish.
At the end of the opening half hour, “Left Bank” doubled their advantage. This goal was a manifestation of individuality. Sinitsa picked up the ball on the right flank, burst into the penalty area and expertly twisted the ball into the far corner of Bandura’s goal.
Minaj couldn’t recover from such a double blow. In the middle of the second half, the Storks scored a third goal. It was Sukhoruchko who found Nikolai Kogut in the penalty area, and he shot accurately into the far corner and set the final result of the final match.
“Left Bank” won a ticket to the Premier League for the first time in history. In the previous season, the capital team finished in 3rd place in the First League. At the professional level, the “storks” debuted only in the 2021/22 season.
