Road to Kyiv
Both teams started from the first round of the competition (1/16). Unlike Chornomorets who met almost no resistance up to the final, defeating Dnipro at its home ground 3:0 along the way; Tavriya had a little bit of trouble when it traveled to Western parts of Ukraine. The Crimeans almost yielded to Skala Stryi in the first round of the competition pulling an extra-time win in Simferopol. Tavriya also managed to defeat Veres followed, surprisingly, by knocking Dynamo out of the competition. The most effort the Odesans needed was against the Carpathian Lions managing to pull a home win in the last minutes of playing time while being tied at one all.
