Shakhtar Donetsk - Dynamo Kyiv drew against each other in the 1st round.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012–13_Ukrainian_Cup#Round_of_32
It will be closer... SD has some serious games starting with their ECL campaign. A bit disappointing that they drew sp early in the competition. Ever since the YFF took away seedings from the draw this kind of a situation was abound to happen. Well, actually it seems to happen practically every season now with SD-DK playing each other in the knockout stage rather than both reaching the final.
As we turn our attention to this week's Kubok games - bench players or not it should be anudder "show your true colors aka Harmarh style game". Of course we could opt for the all Druha league clash between Kremin and Nyva - hmmm weren't once in PL.....
I'm hoping this is the last game with Semin in charge. I know that a large number of DK fans will be boycotting this fixture. Although it's unlikely that Surkis will work up da ballz to pull the plug before the midseason break. I don't even know whom they would appoint as an interim coach. Probably Mikhalychenko.
Semin will get fired after Dnipro beat them in a few weeks time Just imagine if they sold us Kacheridi like we almost talked them into doing. Surkis was sooo close to selling him to us lol
couple of shocks Avanhard Kramators'k (Persha Liha) defeat Zorya on penalties. Shaxtar Svedlovs'k (Druha Liha) upend FC Odesa. Slavutych Cherkassy (Druha Liha) push Volyn Lutsk into extra time. UkrAhroKom Pryiutivka (Druha Liha) push Metalurh Zap. into extra time.
Why should I be mad? And how does scoring a goal change the fact that he is terrible defensively and should not be playing for Dynamo?
I hope the 1-4 scoreline spells the end of Syomin. On the other hand, this was a far better game from Dynamo than the two weeks' old 1-3 loss in the UPL. Taiwo should be sent back to wherever he came from (Milan won't have him, though, and the French - who knows) Betao was bad too. But, while Betao does have decent games (he was the best Dynamo player in Paris, I believe), Taiwo is bad in every game.
He was not responsible for goals, not slone, except he couldn't handle Srna on the third goal. But he was responsible for the one-on-one where SaSho saved his bacon and he lost almost every challenge he had.
Yes, but which one of the 4 goals that Shakhtar scored (the ones that are on the scoreboard and the ones that matter) was he responsible for?
And early on, Adriano flicked past Taiwo like he wasn't even there and put it right on the plate to either Fernandinho (or Willian?). That could have (should have) been a goal.
From what I saw the first goal was because of Raffael, second because of Betao. On the third Gusev and Khacheridi were owned by Fernandinho like little girls lol
1st goal - Raffael 2nd goal - Betao 3rd goal - Taiwo (why was Srna able to get by Taiwo so easily and served right on Ferna's foot without resistance?) and Khacheridi
