In the first two control matches of preparation for Euro 2026, the Ukrainian futsal team competed with the top European champions - Portugal. The game was played on the 19th round against the Portuguese Tavira and ended in a draw 1:1.
The Ukrainians opened a goal in the 12th half: Daniil Abakshin picked up the ball and passed on Igor Korsun, who successfully beat the super team goalkeeper. Already on the 17th line, Ruben Goish made a rakhunok after an accurate shot at the nine.
Throughout the match, both teams had few chances to score, but the defense and goalkeepers acted efficiently.
In the other half, on the Maidan, the 18-year-old Illya Prikhodko made his debut, immediately joining in the attacking actions, creating benefits for the team.
If Korsun and other Gravians have a chance, the Rakhunok will be left unchanged.
The draw with Portugal interrupted Ukraine's streak, which lasted 12 matches so far. Another pairing between teams will take place within a week.
