For Dynamo Kyiv, the scorers were Taras Mykhavko (22'), Matviy Ponomarenko (61') and Eduardo Guerrero (82').
Matches featuring Dynamo Kyiv have proved to be absorbing affairs lately with plenty of scoring the rule rather than the exception. Over their past 6 games, a total of 24 goals have gone in for both teams combined (at an average of 4 goals per game) with 14 of those coming from Dynamo Kyiv. Nevertheless, we will just have to wait and see whether that trend shall continue on in this upcoming match or not.
