Meanwhile, the victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina in the semifinal (2:1) was commented on by Ukraine's goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.
"It was a tough match against a difficult opponent who tried to impose their game through long passes. There was a lot of fighting, ball control, and set pieces. It's good that we didn't give up. We tried to show our game, keep the ball low. The main thing is that we didn't surrender, played until the end, showed character. Such matches are a valuable experience. I want to thank the entire team, all the guys. And those who came in as substitutes and helped give the game new impetus," — said Andriy Lunin.
We remind you that the final match of the Euro 2024 qualification playoff between Ukraine and Iceland will take place on March 26 at the Taras Shevchenko Stadium in Wrocław, Poland, and will start at 8:45 PM local time (9:45 PM Kyiv time).
