The head coach of the youth team of Ukraine Unai Melgos expressed his thoughts about the victory over Finland in the second round of the group stage Euro 2025 U-21.

After the failure of 2: 3 from Denmark in the first match, the “blue-yellow” won the Finns with a score of 2: 0 thanks to the goal of Vladislav Vanat and Maxim Bragar.

" In the first half, we completely controlled the game, supported a high pace. Finland has created certain difficulties for us, but we expected them. They concentrated many players in the middle of the field, but we coped with this. We created moments and could score more.

The second half, we also started well, scored a quick ball, and it already seemed that the game was made. It remained to play on counterattacks and complete the duel. But it turned out wrong, and the finale was quite complicated. Finland began to increase the pace, show the best game. The situation was somewhat similar to the match with Denmark, but we did not miss and still won.

We had to play only for victory, so I should take into account many different factors and pay attention to different possible situations. By the way, I want to emphasize that I do not have constant 11 players in the starting lineup. The one who is ready for the match today is playing, ”the official website of the UAF quotes the words.
