Polissya secured a 1-0 win over Livi Bereh in the Premier League's Regular Season round 6 on Sunday. The match ended 0-1 after a first-half own goal proved decisive. Polissya improved to five wins in six league games with the result.
The turning point came in the thirty-seventh minute when S. Kosovskyi turned the ball into his own net. and here's the thing — Livi Bereh had controlled much of the early exchanges without registering a shot on target. The visitors capitalised when Krasnopir came on for the home side at half-time to shore up the defence.
O. Sokolov received a yellow card in the thirty-ninth minute, just two minutes after the goal. to be fair — the home side gave away too many cheap fouls in midfield, which disrupted their rhythm. Polissya then made tactical changes at sixty-one minutes, bringing on Emerllahu to add pace.
Both managers made multiple substitutions in the second half. Kosovskyi and Shastal came off together at sixty-three minutes, followed by Veleten and Andrade at sixty-eight. Wendell and Diego Andradina replaced two home players at seventy-three, while Andriyevski and Chelyadin completed the changes at eighty-one and eighty-two.
Our prediction of an away win carried seventy-five percent confidence before kick-off. The result vindicated that assessment — Polissya have the deeper squad and showed composure when it mattered. by then — the home side had never got out of second gear, unable to break down a settled defence.
Polissya remain top of the table with fifteen points from six matches. Livi Bereh sit in twelfth place with four points from five games, still without a victory. The gap between the sides is now eleven points after this weekend's results.
The victory extends Polissya's winning streak to four matches across all competitions. Livi Bereh's unbeaten run of five games came to an end, leaving them searching for their first win of the season. and here's the thing — three results in a row without a win is not a crisis, but the pressure will build.
