Metalist-1925 was one step away from being relegated, however Viktor Skripnik’s team saved themselves in today’s match with Polissya by scoring two goals before the final whistle.

Ari Moura became the hero of the Kharkiv team by scoring goals in the 90th and 93rd minutes and snatching an important draw for his team - 3:3.

Note that Metalist-1925 remains last in the standings. The match of the final round with Veres will be the “game of life” for Kharkiv, because only a victory will allow them to rise from the bottom of the UPL.
