Finally, a squad like that of «Polesia-2» (Group «A») is something even more prestigious teams can dream about. And although the debutants from Vilkivtsi have not conceded at home yet, in their match against the Polesians, their defense resembled a sieve, which the visitors took advantage of by scoring five clean goals — 5:0.

«Ruh-2» also secured an assured victory over «Skala 1911», proving to be a tough opponent for the latter, whom they beat twice last season. In Stryi, Lvivians scored three times — 3:0, with their captain Andriy Kitela doubling their lead.

And the central match in this group took place in Horodenka, where «Probiy» hosted «Kulikiv». Recently, Carpathians won over Galicians in a penalty shootout at the VBET Cup Ukraine competition. The return fixture was also closely contested. Especially after halftime, the hosts had more possession of the ball and managed to tip the scales in their favor — 2:0. Coach Volodymyr Kovalyuk's charges continue their unbeaten run.

In Group «B», two representatives of Premier League clubs are already leading — «Kolos-2» and «Oleksandria-2». By the way, in the fourth round, they both recorded convincing victories. Notably, Kovalyuk's team scored twice against Vinnitsa's «Niva» in injury time — 2:1.
