BATE — Torpedo-BelAZ

Borisov-Zhodino derby took place in the Belarusian Cup final for the second half in history. The first one back in 2010 brought the Yellow-Blues won comfortably with 5-0 at Dinamo Stadium and Minsk on the way to their first treble in history.

This time that was a much tougher game with both sides treating each other with great caution and respect. In the first half the Yellow-Blues created a couple of good chances. Mikhail Hardzeichuk's strike from outside the box was probably one of the best opportunities. This was not a perfect threat, but anyway much better than those of Zhodino side. Siarhei Chernik hardly touched the ball in the first half.

The second half followed this plot line. Mirko Ivanić and Yauheni Yablonski tried their luck from outside of the box but missed the target.

BATE accelerated closer to the end of the first half. Individual efforts of Stasevich, Hardzeichuk and especially bright dribbling by Ivanić added up to BATE's attacking power and moved the play fully to Fomichev's goal. But Zhodino had their chance as well when Shapoval missed the target from six yards firing above the bar. Nemanja Milunović had opportunities to prevent the game from going into extra time, but two of his shots were in vain in dying seconds of the first 90 minutes.

Extra time did not bring any difference to the scoreline. Penalty shootout was to decide the winner, and Torpedo-BelAZ did their part better, beating the Yellow-Blues 3-2. Ivanić and Maksim Valadzko were on target for the Yellow-Blues.

BATE will face FC Granit Mikashevichi at Borisov-Arena in a Belarusian Vysshaya Liga fixture on 5^th June.

Aliaksandr YERMAKOVICH (FC BATE Head Coach):
- First of all I would like to congratulate FC Torpedo-BelAZ with the trophy. They were luckier today, but I cannot say they did not deserve this success. They were patient, they waited and succeeded. The game was really tough. We tried our best in defence, but paid too much attention to it. And did not use our chances. Although Milunović, Hardzeichuk and Ivanić could have scored. If we had a goal that would be a completely different game. But what can I say now? I can just congratulate Zhodino on their title.
