Dynamo Kiev earns late draw with Porto in Champions League

Xinhua, September 17, 2015 Adjust font size:

Ukraine's Dynamo Kiev earned a late draw 2-2 against Portuguese Porto during the UEFA Champions League Group G match on Wednesday night after midfielder Vitaliy Buyalskiy scored a last-gasp goal in the dying minutes of the game.

The match at the Olympic stadium in Kiev started at quick pace, with guests dominating possession and having two good chances in the opening 15 minutes. However, Dynamo was the first to hit the target.

In the 20th minute, Oleg Gusev opened the scoring with a shot from the penalty area after a pass across the goal line from Denis Garmash.

Only three minutes later, Porto's striker Vincent Aboubakar scored a quick equalizer with a powerful header, tipping the ball over Dynamo's defender Aleksandar Dragovic.

Aboubakar gave the lead for the Portuguese side in the 81st minute, but Porto failed to hold its grounds.

In the 89th minute, Buyalskiy, who made his Champions League debut, grabbed a deserved goal for Dynamo with a header from close range after an assist by Artem Kravets. Endi
