The encounter that was held at VTB Novogorsk-Dynamo training ground on Friday, ended in a 4:3 win for the White-Blues.
For the second game of the day Dynamo prepared the starting line-up which remembered the official one. The Moscow side took a serious advantage in the first fifteen minutes. Arsen Zakharyan tested luck from distance but Artur Nigmatullin denied the young midfielder's effort. In the next attempt Denis Makarov missed the target with a curling strike.
However, the quantity of chances has been converted into quality soon. Konstantin Tyukavin went one-on-one with the goalkeeper and beat him brilliantly. Five minutes later Nicolas Ngamaleu doubled Dynamo lead being assisted by Zakharyan.
After such a strong start Dynamo players withdrew into the shadows and the Nizhny Novgorod side punished them for it. The former Levante winger Edgar Sevikyan crossed to the far post, from where Ibrogimkhalil Yuldoshev netted a goal with his header. In that episode Eli Dasa's play was not so convincing.
The Israeli right-back turned luck on his side ten minutes later. Dmitry Skopintsev assisted to him and Eli fired from distance beating Nigmatullin – the experienced goalkeeper touched the ball with his hand but couldn't save Pari NN. Dynamo scored the fourth goal by the end of the half. Fedor Smolov intercepted the ball, outplayed two defenders and shot accurately into the left corner.
Dynamo players didn't want to stop. Marcel Licka's team finished the first half with two bright chances more to extend their lead. After the interval Anton Shunin made a spectacular save denying Nikolay Kalinskiy's long-range effort. Then the hosts rained down four promising attempts on the heads of Pari NN footballers. Tyukavin failed to beat Nigmatullin running one-on-one with the goalkeeper, Makarov hit the crossbar, while Zakharyan and Skopintsev also missed the target.
Since the 60th minute the game changed. Firstly, Dmitry Zhivoglyadov interplayed with Sevikyan and hammered the ball under the crossbar. Few minutes later the former Dynamo defender fell down after the contact with Daniil Fomin. The referee gave a controversial penalty to the Nizhny Novgorod side and Timur Suleymanov left no chance to Shunin.
By the way, the visitors didn't have any real chances to equalise. And Dynamo were close to extend their lead. Igor Shkolik missed the target from inside the penalty area being assisted by Stanislav Bessmertnyi. The White-Blues won two friendly matches out of two on Friday and will now continue to prepare for the start of the new season.
On Friday, July 21, the Moscow side will face Krasnodar at VTB Arena at 7 p.m.
