The national team of Ukraine won two matches out of six against various teams on Italian soil. And both were not against the Italians. We lost two games out of three in October 2018, with one draw.
We managed to win during preparation for the final stage of Euro-2016 — in friendlies against the national teams of Romania and Albania. Both matches were highly goal-laden.
However, our last meeting in Italy with another country's team, although also goal-laden, did not bring us much joy. As it was a quarterfinal match at Euro-2020, where the team of Andriy Shevchenko lost — 0:4.
