The first round of the Champions League group stage against Glasgow Rangers has entered the second half.

As time goes by, the Donetsk Miners finally control the rhythm of the game at their feet.

The reversal of the Donetsk miners seems to be coming.

However, they began to be just a little short of the goal...

In the second half, the Donetsk Miners even squandered three chances of scoring goals, among which Xu Qi also squandered an excellent opportunity.

Douglas Costa swept the goal in a chance, Xu Qi shot with half-turned and went over the crossbar.

If this continues, the Donetsk Miners will likely end in their new home game, the first game.

Such a failure will not only cause their Champions League to be in a dark game, but also end their debut in the new stadium in a sad way, but also have a high chance of crisis to qualify for their Champions League group.

It would be awful if the Champions League group stage ended up being eliminated due to this home defeat.

However, the Donetsk Miners equalized the score with a goal from right-back Serner in the 77th minute, which made them not have to worry about the tragic fate of home defeat.

This goal came from Fernandinho's assist. Xu Qi only attracted the attention of the opponent's players through his running. Then Fernandinho passed the ball to Serna, who was unmarked. Serna scored with a strong shot. The score equalized 1-1.

The Donetsk Miners finally tied the score.

In the next ten minutes, the Donetsk miners were in a situation where they were in a position of being in a position of not scoring.

Lucescu replaced Judson and replaced Mkhitaryan; then he replaced Adriano and replaced Gladki.

Continuous adjustments are made on the offensive end, but the final effect is also minimal.

Even in the end, the Glasgow Rangers had the chance to threaten the Donetsk Miners' goal. Fortunately, the rookie defender Rakitsky tried hard to clear the ball, so the team did not lose their last night.

With the departure of Ziglinsky, the Donetsk Miners' defense has begun to fully trust this rookie central defender wearing No. 44. Although his height of 184cm is not as good as Ziglinsky who has a height of 190cm, his physical fitness is also very good, and his height is not a complete disadvantage. After all, there are many top central defenders who are not tall in world football.

Rakitsky is one of the very outstanding defenders of the younger generation.

And today's goal loss has nothing to do with him.

In the end, the end of this game was one to one, and both sides shook hands and made peace.

With such a result, the Glasgow Rangers were naturally excited. They were able to draw the Donetsk Miners away, and the ending was naturally better than expected.

However, the Donetsk Miners suffered some blows. The confidence accumulated in the game against Barcelona was also somewhat lost at this time.

Many people finally understand that the Champions League is not as easy as they thought. They didn't win the first game, and they still have enough time to adjust.

When facing the Urzicheni union in the next game, they must win, and the two rounds of the team are six points that they must get.

Another game of this group, the result was not unexpected. Sevilla beat Urzicheni union 2-0 at home Pisjuan Stadium, and topped the group's standings with three points.

Then the Miners and Rangers each gained one point and tied for second place, with the Urzicheni union ranked last with zero points.

After the first match of the Champions League, the league also rekindled its war.

On September 20, the Donetsk Miners went to Kiev away, and their opponent was Kiev Arsenal.

In this game, the team needs to adjust their mentality in time. Failing to score three points in the first match of the Champions League will naturally affect the mood of the team players. However, when returning to the league, the Donetsk Miners also completely regained the feeling of the king of the Ukrainian league, especially when facing a team from Kiev, they naturally did not hold back!

Four to zero!

Strong away crush!

Such a game and such a score are not surprising at all in the Ukrainian league. This is the strength of the Donetsk Miners. Except for Dynamo Kiev, which can compete with the Donetsk Miners, other teams are basically not a single enemy of the Donetsk Miners.

Unless the Donetsk Miners make mistakes themselves, few teams can prevent Donetsk Miners from scoring points in the league.

On September 24, the Donetsk Miners headed to Kharkov away.

It was another continuous battle, league match.

The opponent is Kharkov Metalworks, which is actually the fifth round of the league and is considered a supplementary match.

Kharkov Metalworks is currently the most powerful team in the Ukrainian league except the Donetsk Miners and Dynamo Kiev.

It is not easy for the Donetsk Miners to score points on them on the road.

In the ninth minute, Donetsk Miners Konstantin Kravchenko scored the first record for the team.

The player Konstantin Kravchenko is another big discovery for Lucescu this season. He is already twenty-five years old and it is difficult to get a chance to play in the team last season. However, in this season, he has played in some less important games and performed quite amazingly.

Especially in the last round of the league against Kiev Arsenal, he scored two goals alone, which was the team's winning contributor.

For a time, his performance had already vaguely surpassed the new aid Mkhitaryan, and Mkhitaryan was a little silent after his outstanding performance at the beginning, and seemed to have not fully adapted to the Donetsk Miners.

Compared with Douglas Costa who has basically won a main place, Mkhitaryan's growth does not seem to be so smooth.

"Konstantin Kravchenko's goal, two consecutive league rounds, has scored three goals. He can be said to be the biggest discovery of the Donetsk Miners this season. It's so beautiful!" The commentator from the Ukrainian Sports Station commented that he was also happy with Kravchenko's goal. As a local player in Ukraine, he naturally prefers Kravchenko, a local player like Ukrainian.

If Xu Qi or those Brazilian foreign players scored goals, these Ukrainian commentators would naturally not be so happy. Only when local players perform well will the commentators be excited.

Especially in less than three years, Ukraine will hold the European Cup in its homeland. In fact, Shevchenko returned to Dynamo Kiev from AC Milan and had the idea of ​​preparing for the European Cup.

So, when Kravchenko performed like this, the commentator even began to look forward to the scene where Kravchenko was selected for the national team three years later and scored goals for the national team.

However, Kharkov Metalworks naturally cannot be easily solved by the Donetsk Miners at their home court.

They will inevitably launch a more violent counterattack.

Seven minutes later, the Kharkov Metalworks tied the score with Olyniko's goal.
Chapter completed!
