Blue and white could not hold back the onslaught of Southerners and lost on the road (1:3).
From the first minutes, the hosts of the field set a high pace. Already in the 4th minute, Krasnodar opened the scoring: after a verified feed from the right flank, Polina Solovyova delivered a solid headbutt, and the ball ricocheted off the bar into our goal - 1:0. By the 10th minute, the territorial and playing advantage of the Southerners became obvious. They carried out several very dangerous attacks, forcing the Dynamo defense to fight back.
However, by the 15th minute our girls were able to get involved in the game, knocked down the attacking impulse of the rivals, calmed down the pace and began to methodically create approaches to someone else's goal.
The activity quickly bore fruit. In the 18th minute Daniella Petrova broke out one-on-one with the goalkeeper, but Krasnodar goalkeeper Veronika Bachurina played on the way out in time and took the ball. And just two minutes after a competent draw, the same Petrova equalized the score with a brilliant shot into the near corner – 1:1!
The missed ball forced the hostesses to go forward again. In the 24th minute, Solovyova tried to score from a distance, but shot past. Soon, in the 29th minute, after another dangerous submission, Alexandra Tolstikova hit her head – again past the target.
The key episode of the first half happened in the 31st minute, when Anastasia Buchatskaya received a yellow card for a foul right in front of our penalty area. Unfortunately, the appointed standard turned out to be effective – Sofia Svyatnaya, with a direct free kick, put her team ahead – 2:1.
Before the break, the blue and white desperately tried to recoup, throwing the ball forward and imposing a tough fight in the other half of the field. By the 40th minute, Krasnodar responded with their attacks, but Diana Valieva acted reliably. In the 42nd minute, Ekaterina Sergeeva had a great chance: she broke through from the left to the goal and struck powerfully, but the ball only hit from the outside of the net.
After playing one added minute, the teams went on a break with a minimal advantage of Krasnodar.
The beginning of the second half passed without obvious moments, by the 50th minute control of the ball remained with the Krasnodar players. In the 53rd minute Petrova reminded of herself with a powerful shot – the ball went over the crossbar, but it was extremely dangerous. By the 57th minute, an open game began with a series of mutual attacks and strikes, but without real sharpness in the end.
By the middle of the half, the game was divided into episodes: there were few moments at the gates of Dynamo, but the number of power struggles and fouls from both sides increased many times. In the 67th minute, the ball, after a tight strike by Anastasia Karataeva, hit the crossbar, however, immediately after that the referees fixed the offside.
Closer to the 70th minute, Krasnodar began to seriously press on our goal, having several excellent chances to increase the gap. In the 76th minute, it became really alarming at the gate of the blue and white. At first, Alyona Godyna struck a strong blow – Valieva repelled it, and the defenders managed to pick up. Immediately after that, Alina Godyna ambushed the mistake of our defender and ran away to the goal, but the Dynamo goalkeeper saved the team again. In the 80th minute, the hostesses had another one hundred percent scoring chance, but the Muscovites showed dedication and were able to knock the ball out of the goalkeeper.
By the 85th minute there was an approximately equal game without any special moments, although the visual advantage of Krasnodar remained. In the 87th minute of the match, a point was made: Godyna received the ball on the right edge of the Dynamo penalty area and with a powerful blow sent it to the far nine of Valieva's goal – 3:1.
The referee compensated for three minutes, after which the final whistle sounded. Krasnodar defeats Dynamo and bypasses the blue and white in the standings.
