Haikin, in second place, made 28 saves in 6 matches, and Gedlička, in third place, stopped 26 shots.

Brave GK Fury Pro gloves: Heorhii Bushchan’s choice

For many years, Heorhii Bushchan has trusted Brave GK equipment. His current favorite is the professional Fury Pro model, designed for goalkeepers who compete at the highest level.

Key features of the Fury Pro and their impact on the game:

  • Palm: 4 mm Supreme Contact latex guarantees excellent grip on the ball in any weather conditions, including rain and high humidity. This is especially important in matches played in winter or rainy conditions, such as the December UPL match against Veres.
  • Rollfinger cut: Ensures a snug fit of the gloves around the hand, helping Bushchan effectively control the ball during difficult saves.
  • Fix Fit system: Internal silicone grip prevents the hand from slipping inside the glove, adding confidence in tense moments.
  • Backhand: A combination of two types of latex and reinforced 3D elements provides additional protection when punching the ball and blocking close-range shots.
  • Comfort and flexibility: The elastic cuff and anatomical shape guarantee a perfect fit and comfort throughout the match.

These characteristics make Fury Pro an ideal choice at a professional level, allowing Bushchan to focus exclusively on his performance and showcase his best qualities.
