Match report19.03.2008. Chernomorets Odessa- Shakhter Donetsk. 1/2 Final Cup (Ukraine)

 


Very important game, maybe the last opportunity for Chernomorets to participate in the UEFA Cup in the next season. So, our Ultras groups began to prepare for this game one month ago.
Duke’s Band prepared a banner with a lighthouse (one of our city symbols), that shows our team the way to the Cup. The size of this banner was 7*9 meters.
Ultras Girls prepared a banner with a sailing frigate “Course to the victory”. 1992 and 1994 on the sails signify the years when Chernomorets has won the National Cup and we are hoping to add one more Cup in 2008 smile.gif The size of this banner was 7,5*9,5 meters.

Ultramarines also prepared something for this game, but we`ll talk about it later.
Thus, the match day came! In the morning some of our fans went to the Railway station to meet fans from Donetsk because they are our friends. Not many fans arrived from Donetsk because the game was on workday and due to rather significant distance between Odessa and Donetsk.
Important game against strong team attracted about 18000 visitors at the stadium and 1100-1200 persons at ultras` sectors. From Donetsk arrived about 150 fans (mostly by bus and few by train). Because of slow police and ticket control many people came to sectors only to the 10th minute of the first half and missed nice performance by our Ultras groups. With the start of the game Duke’s Band raised their banner with the lighthouse and Ultramarines at their sector raised black-blue banner with Ultramarines` logo.

After these actions Ultras Girls raised their banner with a sailing frigate and Ultramarines showed their flags on two sticks “Play with pride”, prepared specifically for our players that were born in Odessa.

During the first half was a good sound support, especially dialog between ultras sectors and central sectors “GO ODESSA!” But the most interesting was prepared for the second half.

In the second half we made a fireshow used about 40 flares and some yellow smokes.

Ultramarines prepared coreo at their sector using black and blue modules and banner with the Cup (12*5 meters). That was the first attempt to arrange a module show in Odessa and I think it was done successfully.

Unfortunately Chernomorets lost this game 1:2 and almost lost opportunity to pass to the final of the Cup. But we still believe that everything is possible! The second game will be in Donetsk on the 16th of April.
