Getting sent off in a big match is a tough pill to swallow, especially for a player considered to be one of the centerpieces of his team. Emotions run high, control is lost, and the filter between the brain and the mouth stops functioning. The next day players tend to regret adrenaline-fueled comments [...]

If football matches lasted 85 minutes Dynamo would be riding an unbeaten Group G record into the knockout round of the Champions League. But after conceding a late equalizer to Arsenal in September, a sucker punch at the death to Porto, and now a highly dubious Nicklas Bendtner winner at the Emirates, the Kiev [...]

Three weeks ago both Dynamo and Arsenal had a chance to take care of business and turn off the pressure for their second meeting. But with two matches to go every team in Group G still has something to play for. Dynamo will need a minimum of four points to be in position [...]

Even before the horrific injury suffered by Oleksandr Romanchuk in the Ukrainian Cup Round of 8 match against Stal Alchevsk, manager Yuri Semin declared that “the infirmary is full”. Dynamo lost Milos Ninkovic and Oleksandr Shovkovskiy during training last week, before Taras Mykhalyk was hurt in the weekend UPL contest against FC Lviv. [...]

As if the outcome of Wednesday’s Champions League encounter with Porto was not disappointing enough, Ukrainian tabloid БЛИК is reporting that a “fan” broke through the police cordon and struck a Dynamo player. Right back Betao was heading off the pitch, probably still trying to process the events that lead to the shocking finish, [...]

I knew eventually it would come to this. For the first time since I started writing for The Offside, I have to tell you that Dynamo lost. It has been more than three months since the Kiev squad left the pitch with nothing to show for their efforts. And it could not [...]

It appears Dynamo drew the right Portugese club in the Champions League this time around. A year ago Sporting Lisbon beat Dynamo twice to end the Kiev side’s miserable European campaign. On Tuesday Sporting completed the “Ukrainian Sweep” with their second victory against Shakhtar Donetsk, leaving the Miners grasping for a UEFA Cup [...]

If there was a formula for Dynamo’s current rampage through mid-table Ukrainian opposition, it would go something like this: the White-Blues shift into fifth gear from the opening whistle, score early and often, then slow the pace and force the other team to concede the outcome before the first half hour is up.
