Valeriy Chorny's team, on their way to the final, beat Atlet (1:0), Kryvbas (technical victory 3:0), Lisne (1:1; on penalties — 4:3), Phoenix-Mariupol (0:0; on penalties — 5:4) and Metalist 1925 (0:0; on penalties — 6:5).

It should be added that representatives of the elite division and the first league will play in the final of the Ukrainian Cup for the second time. In 2019, Shakhtar defeated Inhulets from Petrovy (4:0) in the decisive match.
By the way, the winner of the Lviv final will be the first to win a new cup trophy. Instead of the traditional bowl, it will now be a Cossack mace surrounded by 11 spears.
