Dynamo had no problems with Yenisei in Novogorsk

Summer is over, which means it's time to sum it up. For Dynamo, the summer part of the season turned out to be extremely controversial. On the one hand, three cool, character–based victories over Lokomotiv, Zenit and Krasnodar (all with a score of 1:0!), on the other – defeats in the derby with Spartak and Chertanovo, a nondescript zero draw with Ryazan-Airborne, early departure from the Winline of the Cup of Russia and as the peak point of this controversial summer – the defeat from the Samara "Wings of the Soviets" in the last round, which recorded the third defeat of Dynamo in the season from the Samara club.

It was simply impossible to imagine such a thing last season. However, the team from the banks of the Volga was completely different then.

In general, it turned out to be a completely different summer that I would like to remember. But now autumn is ahead, which means a crucial part of the season. What is Dynamo waiting for there? Well, at least two matches with the prefix "super" – derby with Lokomotiv and CSKA. And as a warm–up to them - meetings with not the most problematic for the blue and white teams: "Yenisei", "Rostov" and "Zvezda-2005".

It is with the Krasnoyarsk club that the Dynamo team begins this, hopefully, successful series. To say that Yenisei is a team convenient for Muscovites is probably an understatement. Five wins in five matches, not a single missed ball from the Krasnoyarsk football players, a defeat in the first round game (3:0) in the Krasnoyarsk indoor arena – it seems that there can be no more healing meeting after such a slap from the Wings.

Only this amplitude season has taught Dynamo fans that you can never be 100 percent sure of something in the case of our team. So the blue and white approached the meeting with the main outsider of the season with some caution. Underestimating an opponent, even one who occupies the last place in the championship standings, is fraught for any team. Dynamo Moscow should not have done this either.

Fortunately, this time the fears were in vain. Already from the very beginning, the settings of our girls became visible only for a victorious result in this meeting. Which began to materialize in the first minutes of the game. In their very first attack, the blue and white created a good moment, but they could not realize it, and a few minutes later Anastasia Shlapakova took advantage of the confusion in the Yenisei penalty area and opened the score in the match.

If for Nastya this goal was the third of the season (and let's get ahead of ourselves – the third consecutive victorious one!), then for Dynamo, her ball became the 100th in the Winline Super League! Here is such an anniversary at the very start of the meeting in Novogorsk.

Well, then the game was played exclusively under the control of the wards of Alexander Katasonov and, unlike the previous match, did not give Dynamo fans any special feelings. Despite the fact that the next goal from the Dynamo players had to wait almost half an hour of playing time. But the expectations were redeemed in full!

In the 39th minute, Maria Galai's flank feed found Kristina Komissarova in the Yenisei penalty area, she threw the ball to Fauzia Nazhemba, who dealt with goalkeeper Polina Malaeva without any problems and went to celebrate her first goal of the season! Dynamo went to the break with a comfortable advantage in the score and self-confidence.

The second half was not as bright as the first. So, the first truly scoring moment in the performance of the blue and white happened only in the 71st minute, when Komissarova calmly had to send the ball to the far nine, but she did not have enough accuracy to put a beautiful point in the match.

But Zelka Belovan managed to do it in the 80th minute. The central defender distinguished herself for the second match in a row and this time she did it after a great combination: Isidora Vuchkovich's corner kick was smartly played with her heel into the goalkeeper's heel by Daniela Basaeva, where Belovan was already waiting for her, who promptly sent it right on target by Polina Malaeva – 3:0!

In the very end, Basaeva herself could have distinguished herself, who jumped on the ball and found herself completely alone in front of the goalkeeper, only she failed to beat Malaeva for the fourth time.

But the goals already scored were enough for Dynamo to win one of the biggest and most beautiful victories this season. To all the positive moments of this meeting was added the return to the main team of Irina Dricheva, who came on as a substitute in the 85th minute of the game and played the 50th match for the Dynamo Housing and Communal Services! For this, the 19-year-old blue and white midfielder took a long 3.5 years.
