The youth teams of Kudrivka and Kolos Kovalivka drew 0-0 in a round-seven UPL-2 match that stretched over two days because of air-raid alerts. Meanwhile the Ukrainian Premier League board has confirmed the date of the first team’s postponed game against Veres Rivne — Saturday, 3 October, kick-off at 13:00.

Both decisions were announced by FC Kudrivka.

Two days for one match

The U-21 game was hosted by the Brukvenko Central Stadium in Makariv, Kyiv region. On Sunday long alerts stopped play in the 28th minute at 0-0 — the clubs agreed to finish the remainder the next day, and on Monday the teams came back for those 62 minutes. No goals followed.

The pairing is a familiar one for the Bucha district: the youth sides fought for points while the senior teams played out 2-3 in Rivne the same weekend — also with a pause for an alert.

Veres — during the international break

The round-six UPL match Kudrivka v Veres was due on 12 September in Rivne but never started because of repeated air-raid alerts. It has now been scheduled for the international break: Saturday, 3 October, at 13:00.

Tickets bought for September remain valid — the club reported this earlier. It will be the team’s first official match after the defeat by Kolos: Kudrivka are bottom of the UPL table after seven rounds with two points, and the postponed game is their game in hand.

What comes next

After Veres, Kudrivka travel to LNZ Cherkasy on 10 October and host Bukovyna on 17 October. The youth team continues its UPL-2 season according to the league calendar.

As a reminder, on Sunday Kudrivka lost 2-3 to Kolos — a Smyrnyi brace could not save the hosts.
