In group «A», after the 14th round, «Agrobusiness» and «Epicerter» strengthened their positions. The footballers from Volochysk won away against their fellow countrymen from «Podillya» (1:0) and jumped to second place. They were helped by «Bukovyna», which put up a fight against one of the leaders, Buzhynskiy «Niva», who has lacked stability lately. The striker of Bukovyna, Vasyl Palagnyuk, scored a brace and saved his hosts from defeat — 3:3.

Also making progress is «Prykarpattia», which secured its second win in a row by taking the lead in Husi — 2:1. Once again, Ivanofrankivsk's Andriy Khoma did not leave the field without scoring a goal and continues to lead his group's scorers with 11 goals.

In group «B», «Ingulets» made an impression. Although at the start of their match against FSK «Mariupol» it seemed to be going well for the Petrykivka team. As early as the 10th minute, the hosts had a penalty kick opportunity, but Artem Sitalo missed it. In the next attack, the guests' Dmitro Pentelichuk skillfully converted the chance — 1:0.

In the second half, «Ingulets»'s game dominance was not in doubt, but Mariupol did not falter near their own goal. It seems that «Mariupol» is becoming an inconvenient opponent for Petrykivka, as it did not lose to the favorite even in the first round.

In today's matches, «Karpaty» was expected to dismantle the outsider, «Metalist», forcing their goalkeeper to capitulate three times (3:0), while «Poltava» broke a losing streak by taking the lead over «Kremen» (4:1).
