Euro 2026 (U-19). Comments from the Ukrainian youth national team after defeating Serbia

We would like to remind you that thanks to this success the team not only secured a place in the tournament semifinals, but also earned a ticket to the final stage of the U-20 World Cup 2027 (U-20).

Vitaliy Glut: "For me today, thank God, was a very good moment. Yes, indeed, I don't show much emotion outwardly. But that's how I've always been. That's how I was taught. I'm really happy, but I understand there is still work to be done.

I liked both of my goals, but the second one a bit more. Now all our attention is on the match against Italy. I believe that if we play united, supporting each other, we can make it to the end."

We dedicate this victory to our defenders and all Ukrainians. We know about the terrible night before, shelling... We hope that we lifted people's spirits a bit.

Nazar Domchak: "Probably, after my debut for 'Karpaty', today was the second most emotional moment in my career.

It's very nice that we managed to reach the semifinals and earn a ticket to the U-20 World Cup 2027 (U-20) by the end of this tournament stage, but our task is not yet complete. Ahead lies the semifinal, and we set ourselves high goals. We will do everything possible to delight our fans and country.

I think today's match was tougher than the one against Croatia. First of all, little time passed between the games, and secondly, let's be honest, we spent a lot of emotional energy in the first game. We had a hard time getting into the match, made unnecessary mistakes, but it's good that we won."
