Four rounds – the first sign, after which we can draw some conclusions about the new season. True, this material is not about that, our task is to eliminate the traditional results of a round by forming a team of the best football players. The tour was not the most spectacular and almost devoid of intrigue. The only surprise was Zorya’s defeat in the match against Rukh. And defeat without a chance.
In the fourth round, not many goals were scored, so we chose the no more aggressive scheme for our team. We will play 4-4-1-1, and without a clean tip.

Goalkeeper – Dmitry Riznyk, Vorskla
Finally, the best goalkeeper of last season (his half) remembers himself. Poltava played against “Alessandria” to zero, and in many respects this is due to Riznyk himself. At least twice he really helped, repelling Kozhushko and Miroshnichenko’s dangerous blows. “Vorskla” is still looking for victories, but the first points are already there. And last but not least, thanks to the goalkeeper.

Right Back – Igor Gonchar, “Minaj”
Full-back Zakarpattsy was close to joining our team a week ago, but he was missing just a little bit. Everything worked out this time. “Minaj” played almost perfectly in defense (including Gonchar), “Minaj” scored two goals (also thanks to Gonchar’s assist), “Minaj” won the UPL away match for the first time in history … And as you understand, Gonchar in played a significant role in this.
-
Center-back – Volodymyr Adamyuk, Dnipro-1
Zero goals conceded in three games is impressive. The defense of the Dnieper seems powerful at the start of the campaign and Adamyuk has also taken on the role of generalist and leader. He not only closes the positions of the right and central defender alternately, but he constantly represents a danger even at the gates of others. In the fourth round, for example, he scored again, this time against Metalist 1925.

Center-back – Semyon Vovchenko, “Veres”
The 23-year-old central defender only made his UPL debut this season, but has already managed to become an important detail in Yuri Wirth’s design. “Veres” played another zero game (against “Kryvbas”), and once again Vovchenko did not make him doubt himself. He left the field without scoring, but was remembered for a reliable match on goal, as well as a good advance of the ball forward.
-
Left Back – Bohdan Mykhailychenko, Shakhtar
The Pitmen had a grueling game against the Chornomorets, but still took three points. Mikhailichenko had a strong duel and scored an important assist: it was after his submission that Shved hit the head exactly, equalizing the score. Also, even in the fifth minute after Bogdan’s next link, Petryak had to score for the Pitmen but shot over the gate. But fate rewarded the hero: Mikhailichenko scored his goal.
-
Right Midfielder – Sergei Myakushko, Kolos
The leadership of the Kovalevites is an unexpected thing. We do not know if the team will be able to maintain the current pace for long, but for now it is only worth being happy for the “white-blacks”, who have once again managed to become a real team. One of its most prominent members is Sergei Myakushko. He is one of the creators in Kolos, in the match against Metalist it was his goal that brought three important points.
-
Central Midfielder – Valentin Rubchinskiy, Dnipro-1
Young tsentrhav is a pleasant discovery of the beginning of the season. The coachman is to be commended at least for the fact that he is not afraid to involve young people, albeit out of trivial desperation. Against Metalist 1925, 20-year-old Rubchinsky was one of Dnipro-1’s brightest players – he himself punched and scattered attacks and successfully switched to partners. Yes, he left the field without effective action, but he managed to join our team through perseverance and diligence.

Central Midfielder – Alexey Khakhlev, “Minay”
But the 23-year-old world champion was noted not only for a quality game, but for getting into the statistics. And twice. In the first half, it was the perfect canopy of him that helped Tverdokhleb score and lead “Minaya” into the scoring. After the break, Khakhlev finally killed the intrigue, completing the attack with an accurate shot from the opponent’s penalty area. 1 + 1 – pretty good.
-
Left Midfielder – Vasily Kravets, Vorskla
Vasily played for a long time in Spain, but on Monday he made his debut with Vorskla. And he did it well, albeit in the position of the left midfielder. Due to Kravets, two hits to the post, continuous attacks and work without the ball. In general, everything is on the level, only the oppressed were not enough. But the odds were …
-
Attacking midfielder – Vitaliy Buyalsky, Dinamo
The player of “Dinamo” for the first time in a season has arrived in our national team. It is deserved that this honor was given to Vitaliy Buyalsky, who participated in all the goals of the people of Kiev in the new campaign. A week ago, he scored 1 + 1 against Zorya and in the fourth round he scored the winner against Lvov. And as the capital squad is gradually coming back to consciousness, Buyalsky demonstrates leadership inclinations and scores the most important goals.
-
Forward – Talles Brener, Rukh
The Brazilian is not a position forward, but in the fourth round he was a forward of spirit. It was Talles who became the author not only of the first hat-trick in the new season, but also the one who scored three goals for Rukh in an UPL match. All three of the Brazilian’s goals turned out to be for different tastes and in total brought a positive result to the Lviv team, plus three in the standings and a jump from last place.
-
Head Coach – Leonid Kuchuk, Rukh
We are not original, everything was clear with the national team manager even after the first match. “Rukh” was the last one before the match with the leader (“Zorya”), but he managed not only to prepare perfectly, but also to take three balls. Despite the deplorable state of the Lviv team in the first three rounds, they were ideally prepared against the Luhansk team, both tactically and psychologically. And for this everyone should praise Leonid Kuchuk.
