Today in Euro-2022, taking place in Cagliari, Italy, the Ukrainian beach soccer team met Azerbaijan in a match for fifth place.
We remind you that on Saturday our team won France (10:5) in the semifinal of the tournament for fifth-eighth places and secured their spot at the 2023 European Games in Krakow. So, in the match against Azerbaijan's national team, which yesterday defeated Poland (6:2), Mikola Kostenko’s wards played very confidently.
Our team, with Votenko opening the score in the first period, doubled their lead at the start of the second 12-minute segment — Igor Borsuk scored. The Caucasians tried to change the course of the game when Zeynalli scored, but the blue and yellow immediately restored parity after an impressive header by Andriy Borsuk. In the third period, Votko, Pashko, and Kovalenko sealed the deal.
Thus, Ukraine's team finished in fifth place on Sardinia.
