Six matches in the second round of the UPL have presented a lot of emotions. As well as topics for thought – the problems of "Dynamo" before the match between "Shakhtar" and "Slavia", the game "Mariupol" failure on the eve of the league's qualifying match. Europe. But there are clubs that are pleasantly surprised by their play.
General Impressions
Ukrainian teams are gradually entering the season. Some begin from the beginning to show a high quality game, some not yet ready. The latest statement concerns the "Carpathians" of Lviv, whose coach Oleg Boychyshyn said that the team is ready to play only 60-65 minutes. Although the match against "Chernomorets" showed that the team stopped playing early in the second half.

The situation with Mariupol is also unclear. After an important start in Sweden for a Europa League qualifier against Yurgroden, the Mariupol people at home were simply destroyed by the Desna. Yes, the game was influenced by a quick goal from the third minute. But the two forwards Chernihivs Khlubas and Filippov have just destroyed the defenders of "Mariupol" in their penalty area. Yes, and "Desna" the day before the match "Mariupol" in the LEE held a match no less difficult in the UPL against Shakhtar.
Not impressive "Vorskla" at the moment. The bronze medalist of the previous championship, with "Mariupol" and "Arsenal-Kiev", are the only teams that have not yet won. At the same time, the Poltava team will represent Ukraine in the group stage of the Europa League. And if the defeat of "Dynamo" in the week on heavy ground after a mistake, the goalkeeper can be perceived as an accident, the lack of a match in the match against "Olympic" is already worrying. But the citizens of Donetsk took full advantage of their moment in this match and won.

But Aleksandria is striking. Taking into account the previous championship, the team 7 wins in a row. Currently, none of the UPL teams has such an indicator. The Sharan team will not lose in the last 14 games (yes, it's worth noting that last season Alexandria finished in the last six, where the opponents are simpler). With regard to the home match against the "Star", it can be said that they were somewhat lucky because the Luhan remained in the minority after the injury of Gromov. Nevertheless, three points in the assets of Alexandria and a place among the leaders of the ULR.
Anxiety also causes "dawn". In the summer, the team remained without a striker (once again), and Gromov, who came out in the lead, was injured. So the question arises – how Yuri Vernidub plans to get out of this situation.
Regarding the Shakhtar, the miners have fulfilled their minimum program against Arsenal-Kiev. The "Gunners" have not been good at the ULP yet. The coach Ravanelli can not build a team game. With such a game on Kiev, there is still no defeat. The only question: how long will be the patience of Italians or owners of Arsenal-Kiev?

Instead, another beginner (real, not according to the legal side) – FC Lvov more than 90 minutes against Dynamo. And with great success. And Lvivites could count on glasses, if not on Rusin's head. The 19-year-old striker just came out on the field a minute ago. The most interesting thing about this situation is that Rusin is a student of FC Lviv. So he did not take the doors. And that is his third goal for Dynamo in four matches (previously he scored in the European League and Ukraine Cup last season). At the same time, in these games, he replaced and spent a little over 30 minutes in total. Joker Khatskevich?
"Chernomorets", despite the fact that Angela Chervenkov had to gather the team before the start of the championship, shows a pretty good match. In the second half of the match against the Carpathians, they created many opportunities, but failed to distinguish them. However, the team does not seem to be an obvious underdog.
Match Match
Two games – "Lviv" vs. "Dynamo" and "Mariupol" vs. "Dawn" – claim this title. But the overall impression here is the advantage on the side of the match in Lviv. It also allowed 10,115 people to participate in the game, which has become the UPL record this season (but this record will only last Friday, August 3, when Dynamo hosts Shakhtar at the NSC "Olympiyskiy"). In addition, both teams showed a fairly dynamic game. It is clear that "Lvov" played with the defense. Nevertheless, the "townspeople" install themselves in protection, but also had several moments near the Boyka Gate. However, the defeat at the last minute of the match

Tour team
Here, without a doubt, the Desna of Chernigov. This is for team work. The team managed quite easily in defense (the only mistake committed by Gitchenko) and repeatedly threatened the door of Khudzhamov. It was possible to celebrate four times, and UPL received two double sponsors already in the second round.
Disappointment of the tour
And here is already "Mariupol". After the match against Yurghraden, this match was not expected from the Azovs. So there are some fears for the match of Thursday, August 2 in Odessa against the Swedes. So, the team does not have a spare spare bench, so it is painless to hold the warehouse rotation. But still …
"Arsenal-Kiev" still claimed to be "disappointing", but there was no expectation for this team.
Goal of the Round
This title could also be claimed by the goals scored by Morais in the gate "Arsenal-Kiev", and Rusina at the door "Lviv". Instead, Balashov will score goals for Vorskla. The player himself scored the goal on the goalkeeper after a quick free-kick.
