The women's national team of Ukraine, defeating the Albanian team in Varaždin, Croatia (2:1), secured their group in the Nations League ahead of schedule and for the first time in history qualified for Division A.

"We are happy! Positive news for fans, for us, and for the whole country,— quotes our team's coach Volodymyr Pyatenko in 'Suspilne Sport'. — What did you tell your players? Don't put off until tomorrow what can be done today. An important game for us all—we had to avoid complacency."

The score on the board. Did anyone ask for another goal? They asked. Everyone was asking, hoping to calm down the Albanians, but we have what we have. The main thing is that we won. I congratulated the girls on qualifying for Division A. They deserved it."
