“SE” announces the penultimate round, which matches the outsiders may be left in the shadows of the meeting with the participation of all the medalists.

Thirtieth round finally distributed all possible buns between the teams of the first six.

Another penalty, reflected Yuri Panicum allowed “Alexandria” to win the historic bronze medals ahead of schedule, for two rounds before the end and even extend winless five matches this has not prevented. Frankly, anxious for the debut of the team of Vladimir Sharan in the Europa League group, but the leadership of the club and the coach have a couple months to raise the level of play.

Grosmeisters draw “Dawn” in Lviv also identified participants qualified for the Europa League. Yes, “lions” behind the Luhansk and “Mariupol” for six points, but he loses to both clubs for personal meetings. The team first Gilmara, then Yuri Bakalov, and now Bogdan Blavatsky never beat nor “Mariupol” or “Dawn”, losing each of these opponents twice. Champion and Vice-champion was defined before, the difference between the fourth and fifth place in the realities of the Premier League and after winning the Shakhtar Cup just yet.

Therefore, the much to spread the idea of the tree in the context of the top six makes no sense – especially since the floor below the intrigue is obvious. Announcements of matches of “Shakhtar” and “Mariupol” is not the first to write a meaningless, although in this particular case, the miners may Azov and allow the club to take points.

Dynamo must beat the house “Lviv” for sheer class – the more that Nazar Rusin (Artem Besedin, think again injured) rested for a week and spoiling for a fight. The whole “Clasico on the bench sat Denys Harmash and Mikkel Duelund – we are extremely curious both to see, once the situation is conducive to experiments.

Let me remind you that the “lions” won their first match at the Olympic stadium in this season, so confrontation there are critical notes. It is because of these losses of “Dynamo” for the third time in a row gives Shakhtar the title…

Match of “Dawn” and “Alexandria” could be most interesting if the teams in the last round played a little differently. And so – even with the sacramental “for the fans” is not very appropriate: how many of them goes to Luhansk in Zaporizhia? In the game against Lviv – fifteen hundred, “the Metallurgist” in the second League collects more…

Is keep our fingers crossed that Vyacheslav Checher entered the field in the remaining two matches of the season. When 38-year-old defender will catch up with the number of games in the Premier League Oleg Shelayev – and at the end of the season to share second place in the number of games in the elite division of Ukraine.

Now this is where you really decide something.

Arsenal have a chance to avoid the play-offs is almost there. Not only that, Marseille broke away from the gunners on six points – he has advantage on personal meetings. The only chance is to Marseille, Arsenal and Karpaty scored an equal number of points. To do this, Arsenal won both matches at the finish line (the Chernigov tomorrow and Lviv in the last round), “Karpaty” in the nearest round of beat “Olympic”, and themselves “Olympians” lost not only tomorrow in Lviv, but in Poltava after a week.

One by one events are possible, but all together has converged… on the strength of one percent probability.

So, there is the opportunity to focus on preserving not the last place, which will give the opportunity to play in the play-offs. And it is because of tournament hands, you can at least in absentia to advise Igor Leonov and his team focus on the task-at least in the form of a draw.

Of course, then there is a risk to fall on the last line for the tour to end, but… the defeat of the “Gums” in the last round should not freeze the eye: the team played very well and took the points with Vorskla, mainly because of bad luck and able to create the people of Kiev have a lot of problems.

Arsenal have already made a miracle, when he played a huge backlog from competitors and walked away with a steady last place. But now when the game starts to improvise, it is difficult to escape the feeling that the finish will not be enough. The team barely escaped with the “Chernomorets” has lost in Poltava, shared the points in a home game with Marseille, which is almost the entire second half remained in the minority – and now it will be a tough away game in Chernigov.

Last tour Kiev play at home against FC Karpaty Lviv – and most likely their fate will be decided in this match and in the matches with participation of Chornomorets. Desna, for all its current problems, just stronger…

***

In the last six matches Marseille three wins, 11 points and one hundred percent success rate at home. Just Bravo, Igor Klimovsky pulled the team from the bottom three in that moment, when it seemed that the destiny of this team is to fight for not least place.

With all the loss of “Carpathians” will make “Olympic” tenth – Lviv will have an advantage in personal meetings and in the last round they will have to play against Arsenal is better than Shakhtar – Vorskla. However, let’s understand that at the end of the season the team is weaker than FC Karpaty Lviv in the Premier League simply does not exist.

Five points in last seven rounds, and even at the level of the second six, where by definition there are no top teams, depressing…

***

A potential draw in Lviv will save for the “Olympic” detachment, but does not guarantee a place outside the bottom three. The fact that in such a situation the teams will be equality in personal meetings, and count will have the third indicator – the difference of scored and conceded.

It teams are almost the same (“minus 7” Donetsk “minus 10” for Lviv), and in the last round the team will still be able to swap places in the table.

However, more important than any tournament hands, such a simple thing as the level of play from both teams. Karpaty did not Shine, and even a home victory is far not rubber stamp: of the last five matches won only two. “Olympic” three sheets blew away match in Chernigov, but in Odessa, Alexandria and on the pitch, Arsenal got a draw.

Given that the last match of the season, Karpaty have a very difficult (away to Arsenal), we can say that a draw from the team you want now.

“Chernomorets” played out at a time when he didn’t believe it, no one seems to know. Since the ending of the match in Chernigov, the team has shown and continues to show an outstanding attacking power. In the last four matches the team had 11 goals, Vasily Pavlov scored without even having a place in the starting…

Only fundamental problems in the defense prevented the team of angel Chervenkov to win match after match, but the gap from Arsenal melted almost to a point.

“Almost” because the advantage in personal meetings also in favor of the Kiev club. And now the significance of this additional figure is difficult to overestimate, because of the potential draw in Poltava will leave the “Chernomorets” in last place, even with the loss of the “gunners”.

Count on the last round? Risky: Arsenal may be in it just to beat the house “Karpaty” and send the legendary club in the first League, regardless of the successes of the past with Desna.

So, we need to play to win against Vorskla at its own game. Nothing is impossible in this mission is not exactly the Poltava club he recently solved the problem of the refusal, and in March looked the worst in the League. The team of Vitaliy Kosovo may experience problems even with the motivation: advantage over the nearest pursuer is three and a half points, and even if the seventh place Vorskla really need during the tour to end, she will be the leader of the second six.

But anyway, the last problem is fairer to consider far-fetched. This and the following matches need Kosovo: after a tough start at the helm of the Poltava club, he lined the results and should do everything to increase your chances of a full contract.

A strong middle of the Premier League is almost a perfect place to start a career 45-year-old coach, and a legend of Dinamo will do everything to set up his players for the match with Chornomorets on in life…
