In the second half of the match, the home team took the lead after a powerful header by Andriy Storchous, who came on as a substitute.

This defeat practically eliminated Polischuk from securing a direct spot in the first league. Therefore, the visitors threw all their strength into an attack and did not miss out. In stoppage time, Bogdan Orinchak, who also came on as a substitute, scored a goal while falling down, saving his team from trouble — 1:1.

Such a result pleased another contender for the top spot — FC "YUKSA". The team from Tarasivka, playing in Styr, opened the scoring on the 78th minute after a shot by Brazilian player Santiago Rosian. However, it was not him who became the hero of the match. In stoppage time, a penalty was awarded to the home team, but Styr's Maxim Aver'yanov lost the duel with goalkeeper Nikita Fedotov. Thus, "YUKSA" secured victory (1:0) and once again became sole leaders, though behind in points compared to "Druzhba" and "Zvyahel."

And finally. FC Trostyanets decided by mutual agreement to end their cooperation with head coach Valeriy Shapovalov. In the last rounds, the team will be led by Shapovalov's assistant — Volodymyr Prokopinenko.
