Previous meeting
On September 27, 2024, the teams met in Rivne. The opponents started the game actively and exchanged goals in the opening minutes: the hosts responded to Tsukanov’s penalty with a successful attack, finished off by Volchkov. Then the pace of the game decreased somewhat – the Miners acted more actively, trying to advance the ball to the final third of the field, while Veres U19 avoided sitting deep and responded with counterattacks of their own. At the beginning of the second half, the Pitmen took the lead after a set piece: the ball hit the post, and Bashmarin successfully chose a position and finished. In the final minutes, the Miners were reduced to ten men, Halonskyi received a second booking and was sent off. However, the Orange-and-Blacks managed to keep the score and won 2-1.
