Tuesday, June 7 in Rotterdam, the wards of Volodymyr Yezersky will play their decisive third match in the elite round qualification for Euro 2022 (U-19).
In the first round of the elite round qualifier for Euro 2022, Ukraine's youth team (players born no later than 2003) defeated Norway (3:2), and in the second match drew with Serbia (1:1). On June 7, the blue-and-yellow team awaits a challenging test against the hosts—the Dutch. The match will take place in Rotterdam at the Varkenoord sports complex field (Olympiaweg 74-76 3078 HT Rotterdam), which is the home ground of the local Feijenoord academy. Admission for fans—free.
As a reminder, to qualify for the final tournament, first place must be secured. In case of equal points, personal meetings are considered first according to the regulations. Considering the draw with Serbia and Ukraine's match against the Netherlands, the Ukrainian team needs to win in order not to depend on others, possibly even securing a specific score (for example, if Serbia beats Norway by more than one goal). As of today, all four participants have a chance for first place.
Both third round matches will start simultaneously at 19.00 CEST (20.00 Kyiv time).
