FFU First Vice President Oleg Protasov commented on the result of the Luxembourg-Ukraine national team match.

In the away game of the Euro-2020 national team of Ukraine thanks to a goal in the last seconds snatched victory in the Luxembourg team (2: 1). The first vice-president of the FFU Oleg Protasov was present at this game, who gave his comment on what he saw.
 
- After a successful match with a strong opponent, there are often difficulties in meeting with a weaker opponent, - said Oleg Valerievich. - But the guys are good, patient and still achieved the desired.

It is easier to sit on the bench than in the stands, everyone was very worried about the result. I do not want to analyze anything, because there is a head coach, his assistants, experts. The match did not go very well for us, although the national team of Ukraine had an advantage. And yet the game is forgotten, and the result remains. This victory, given the draw in the match Portugal - Serbia, brought the blue and yellows to first place in the group. However, in any case, you can not relax, because the whole struggle is just beginning.
