2018: results of the year for Ukraine U-17/18
In 2018, the Ukrainian youth team, made up of players born in 2001, became a part of an unpleasant story.
It will be recalled that due to a mistake by the coaching staff, the match won in the elite round of Euro 2018 (U-17) with the Serbian team turned into a technical defeat. Two players, Roman Bodnya and Mykola Yarosh, were not allowed to take part in the game due to a yellow card, but went on the field. Therefore, my dream to play in the final part of the European Championship - a very real one, given the draw with Spain and the victory over Serbia - unfortunately failed.
We have not yet understood what the potential of this generation of players really is, because there has not been an adequate test of their capabilities. Kuznetsova's wards played very confidently in friendly matches and international tournaments, and even the 2001 singer was even actively involved in the senior youth team by her coach Sergey Popov.
In the first half of 2018, Kuznetsov's team played 10 matches, in which 26 players took part. In the second half - only six matches, but the coaches involved 28 players. A total of 33 players played during the year.
In the summer, the 2001-born players completed their studies at schools and academies and joined the U-19 club teams. Everyone's progress is different. Therefore, starting from August 2018, a new stage of selection work has started. Mostly - with already known personnel, but taking into account new information.
