The head coach of the Ukrainian U-19 national team, Dmytro Mikhailenko, prepared his bags for the performance of his players at the 2024 European Championship in the Republic of Ireland, reports the official website of the UAF.

The specialist shared that the hostility towards the Euro is in no way positive.

" We have achieved the highest standards of European football, and how far must we go?. We are no longer satisfied with our performance and can see the positivity in the future,” said Mikhailenko.

We also assessed the performance of the Ukrainian U-19 national team in the five-point system.

“Looking at the difficulties we faced, as well as the plethora of superniks, I think we can safely give a four with a plus. It very rarely happens like this when you become unsatisfied with everything. It could have been better asked for us, the coaches, and the football players,” the specialist respects.

Mikhailenko noted that he had believed in his friends at the group stage until the end.

" I believed in the boys until the end. At the tournament, in principle, there is an equal pool of participants. It was possible, the trochi was worse than the pivnish Irlanda, Ale for the rachunok, the strokes of the stunned I was on the piece lawn, the rosemy of the marshmallows, the mere murosy male nimyulyulyuvati for the same parameters.

Norway is a very strong opponent. The girls went out before the Euro finals. This team was in front of this miraculous physical readiness, since the championship broke up. And they have individually strong Viconians. In the first game of the tournament, the Italians simply won over the Norwegians for the sake of individual mastery.

In the head-to-head game with Norway, all our challenges were fulfilled. We suffered under the pressure of our opponent, the stench was intensely pressing. And in the other half it became a little easier, the rest of the work in this way is all 90 times smooth. We have verified the group.

We knew that the team from Italy had a significant chance of scoring. We were insured on our own strength, and with a cool head we prepared for the ultimate confrontation with the group.

Chi was completely relieved after that emotional fight? To be honest, the team was emotionally devastated. In the match with Italy, if we managed to equalize the goals closer to the middle of the other half, the boys realized that we can overcome. And victory was necessary in order to reach the finals of the European Championship, and a ticket to the world championship was at stake. I didn’t want to lose another match, in which everything that could happen could happen for the future. Also, the football of the national team of Ukraine ceased to exist, depriving all forces on the field. Why is this great thing?.

Incredible joy, emotions - this was after the game. In the meantime, the coaching staff reported as much as possible so that football would be prepared to the maximum extent possible for the confrontation with France. If we had played better in defense, then our chances of reaching the final would have been much greater.

I would like the team to control the ball better, move the game, so that we would not defend so much, which is what happened. And this should lie under different nuances. I didn’t want to go into tactical details, but after Mikoli Ogarkov’s injury, ball control was deprived of the best ability. We went to the song changing, so we got caught more often. It is important to radically change as the tournament progresses.

Who is dissatisfied with the implementation? Just a little bit more. It was our fault to overrun Northern Ireland. Ale, here I am adding one nuance. This is the first match of the tournament, praise, emotions. And in our attack group there were three football players, who were younger at one time, or even two. Possibly, the government did not allow the boys to make the right decisions. But the speeches in such a situation are completely understandable. Of course, I always want something better, lest I put any emphasis on my respect. Zagalom team did well.

What are the further plans? Until the World Championship, which will be held in 2025, no data has been transferred so that new candidates can be checked from the selection team.. And we would like to empower this team. That’s why I’m already wondering what fate it is that I’ll have to come back one more time to admire the power of other guys who were on the extended list for the European Championship, but didn’t get there.

Well, in 2025 we will hold a collection so that we can still count on these players to go to the World Championships in Chile,” he said..

" These teams were recognized by the high individual level of the players and the tactical competence of the entire team. It’s not surprising that this head-to-head duel at the finals ended just before that hour. And, in my opinion, the Italians looked better. The French were more interested in individual mastery, and collective activities in them were not so beneficial,” said Mikhailenko.
