2 – 3
“Yevhen Smyrnyi opened the scoring for Kudrivka, finishing off a move assisted by Artur Dumanyuk after sustained early pressure including two corners.”
“Just six minutes after Demchenko's equalizer, substitute Daniil Khrypchuk struck to put Kolos Kovalivka ahead for the first time, capping a chaotic spell of cards and momentum shift.”
Pivotal“After a double half-time substitution reshaped Kolos Kovalivka's attack, Denys Ndukwe extended the lead to 3-1, assisted again by the influential Rrapaj.”
Pivotal“Smyrnyi grabbed his second of the game to make it 2-3, reigniting Kudrivka's hopes of a comeback after a corner created the chance.”
Kudrivka started brightly and led through Yevhen Smyrnyi's 19th-minute strike, but a wild first half saw Kolos Kovalivka hit back twice through Oleksandr Demchenko and substitute Daniil Khrypchuk to turn the game around by the 36th minute. Denys Ndukwe's goal just after the restart, following a double substitution, looked to have settled it at 3-1, but Smyrnyi's second goal on 62 minutes set up a nervy finish that Kudrivka couldn't quite complete. Despite Kudrivka's dominance in possession (54%) and shots on target (2-0), Kolos Kovalivka's clinical edge and Rrapaj's creative influence proved decisive, with the away side converting three of their four shots into goals. The result drags Kudrivka deeper into trouble near the relegation zone, while Kolos Kovalivka's resilience after conceding twice offers a timely confidence boost.
