The representatives of the third-ranked Ukrainian division went on winter break first. The championship will be paused for a long time, as competition resumes only on April 8 next year.

In the last match before the holiday, the clear favorite, "Niva" (Buzova), sought to further increase its lead over pursuers. By the way, in the guest game against "Chayka," head coach of the Buzhivskiy team Sergey Karpenko intrigued somewhat by not including the top scorer of the tournament, Ivan Somov, in the starting lineup. And despite having an advantage in the first half, the footballers of "Niva" could not open the score. But it was worth it for Somov to appear on the field right after halftime, as everything quickly fell into place. The unstoppable Somov scored himself and made a goal-scoring pass to Andriy Golovatentuk. Consequently, Buzhiv acquired another large victory — 4:0 and strengthened its leading position, remaining the only champion team in Ukrainian football that has not suffered any losses.

Moreover, their fellow competitors from Vinnytsia, who noticeably improved in October, were unable to take the lead in Husi. Interest in this confrontation was fueled by the fact that coach of "Husi" Volodymyr Tsytkin previously led Podolyan. And it was precisely the Zakarpattians who played better, as they not only went ahead after Vadim Mardiyev's shot but also controlled events on the field. However, a loss of concentration in injury time cost the hosts dearly: following a corner kick near the goalmouth, guest defender Yevheniy Moroz corrected the ball into the net. 1:1. The Vinnytsians are saved from defeat, but they let Buzhiv further pull away.
