Kudrovka beat Lozovaya 6:1 in the Cup Round of 64 at Avangard Stadium on 22 August 2026. The visitors arrived with mixed recent form — two goalless draws before a 5:1 victory over Shakhtar Donetsk — and left with a comprehensive win. Lozovaya, meanwhile, had struggled recently with a 1:1 draw and a 0:2 defeat. The result sends Kudrovka through to the next round.
The opening goal came early, O. Belyaev finding the net in the sixth minute. Kudrovka pushed forward quickly, R. Verley adding a second in the seventeenth. Hladkyi made it three before the half-hour mark, and the visitors doubled their advantage within minutes of each other in the forty-second — a regular goal and a penalty, both by Belyaev. The hosts never really got going.
The second half brought more of the same. A goal in the fifty-sixth minute extended the lead further, and Cherevatenko's own goal in the fifty-seventh added to Lozovaya's misery. M. Serdyuk scored in the seventieth, followed by another goal in the seventy-eighth and a third in the eightieth from M. Ogarkov. By then the match was long decided.
Belyaev's three goals — including the penalty — were the standout performance. Verley, Hladkyi, Serdyuk, and Ogarkov also found the net, while two goals came from unnamed scorers. The visitors showed no mercy against a side that had looked vulnerable in recent outings.
Lozovaya's cup campaign ended here. They had needed the points badly, but this was a different fixture entirely. Kudrovka move on, their recent results suggesting they are building something worth watching.
