Roman Kotlyar won a match between the national team and another opponent at the current European Championship.

The first victory at Euro 2024 will be achieved for the victorious national team of Ukraine! Sergiy Rebrov's team beat Slovakia and improved its tournament standings. There is at least one important match ahead, but first let’s concentrate on the battle with Slovakina. From what materials will we look at what the team of Francesco Calzoni was able to win?.

Slovakia continued to use its standard techniques in the first half, but Ukraine could not respond to them for a long time. After the defeat in the match with Romania, the supply of one hundred percent of the positions on the offensive was raised. A lot of criticism fell on Andriy Lunin, who was blamed for most of the goals conceded. It was difficult to trust the coaching staff to Anatoly Trubin or again place a bet on the Real Madrid goalkeeper. Depriving him at the gate would be a good gesture, if only to demonstrate the encouragement that Andriy’s position is very important for the graves. However, in the starting warehouse of Viyshov there is still a Benfica footballer.

On the right flank, Oleksandr Tymchik replaced Yukhim Konoplya, the focus was on straightness - the lateral of Dynamo Kiev plays more traditionally along the entire side, and also often occupies a lower position I think it’s not enough to allow mother’s counter-arguments to the Swedish attack of Slovaccini.

Volodymyr Brazhko has been transferred to the position of defensive midfielder.

The right winger was played by Andriy Yarmolenko, not Viktor Tsigankov.

The main officials of the national team of Ukraine had a hopeless game in this match. Francesco Calzoni's team is good at putting up high pressure, and at the same time competently moving the opponent to have mercy.

In addition, it was necessary to demonstrate greater efficiency in attack, which was rarely done in the first half. One of the claims in the front sustria was the sterile watering of the ball, as it did not lead to such or other episodes.. Whose time they gave me a look, I can see the picture. In many moments, the graves tried to minimize the risks, play simpler, in order to avoid counterattacks, through which they screwed up at least a few potentially unsafe approaches to the enemy’s goal.. Substituting a forward pass and a reverse pass.

The longball tactics were actively developed in order to quickly deliver the ball to the final third, bypassing the attack and trying to catch the opponent’s high defensive line. The main figures in this component were Mykola Matvienko and Illya Zabarny, after a long pass from the center back Shakhtar, Ukraine was first able to get into space with Andriy Yarmolenko, although he was offside.

The Slovakian team was highly pressing and did not allow the “signo-zhovtim” to build up normally.

It was intended to block the recipients for a forward pass, which made it difficult for the defenders to constantly control the ball and find the best options..

This also created unsafe situations, since Ukraine often had to sit in a low block, and it did not always control the entry of superniks and allow passes to pass between the lines. Once the goal did not lead to a missed goal, if Anatoly Trubin was the result of a similar attack.

In addition, they stayed near the middle block and allowed the Slovaks, including the central defenders, to better prepare the forward pass and evaluate where they would get the best results, most often looking for recipients on the flanks.

The team of Francesco Calzoni scored their goal to a standard, as in many previous matches of the Ukrainian national team, this problem cannot be corrected..

The most important ones are those that the “blue-zhovtym” indulged in exploiting the weaknesses of their rival in such a scenario. Once this led to a Swedish attack with an inaccurate strike from Mikhail Mudryk.

In another episode, Georgy Sudakov, having made a brilliant pass to the flank for a long time, created a miraculous moment, which, surprisingly, did not end in a goal.

Ukraine made a number of changes, which allowed them to change the little ones. An important factor was the fact that Sergiy Rebrov’s team began to put more pressure on their opponent, and also caught him in the transitional phases, which is a problem for the Slovak team. It’s good for you to press your opponent closer to your opponent, so as not to effectively turn back into defense.

They also often waste their players in the powerful penalty area - this is also a systematic shortcoming that can be seen in many matches. The first goal of Ukraine was just like that - Oleksandr Zinchenko made a pass from the flank near the center, and there they deprived one of Mykola Shaparenko, who with a clear blow called the rakhunok.

Addition and release of Roman Yaremchuk. I myself decided to spite the Slovakian then, since she was too high, and it was necessary to take into account the long transfer from Illya Zabarny. In the first half, a similar episode did not occur until an unsafe moment, when. Tim is no less, closer to the end of the match, the Blues and Yellows were in a low block, and were also increasingly looking forward to pressing on their opponent, concentrating on counterattacks.

The little ones dictated similar minds, but it is not a fact that in the future it will not lead to a different result. In the final match for another match at Euro 2024 of Ukraine, you can give a plus for the character and a good other half, otherwise the performance definitely needs to be improved and its stability throughout the whole match, and not just the best moments.
