The ball in the goal of the Portuguese national team, scored by Roman Yaremchuk, helped the blue and yellows to win this match.

After the match of the Euro-2020 qualifying tournament Ukraine - Portugal the striker of the national team of Ukraine Roman Yaremchuk answered the journalists' questions.

- Roman, is this the coolest history of the Ukrainian national team?

- I would not compare. The main thing is that now we have done a great job. But no one is going to rest on their laurels, there is a very responsible job ahead to look decent in the final part of the European Championship.

- Can you call the ball you scored the most important in your career?

- Probably so far.

- Is the national team of Ukraine already a top team?

- It's not for me to evaluate. But the fact is that we can do something. The team secured a place in the Euro in advance. I think we are showing good football now. Even ten against the current European champions, we tried to keep the ball.

- After the removal of Stepanenko and the penalty taken by Cristiano Ronaldo, there was uncertainty?

- There was a small indulgence, but, in principle, we performed the installation given by the head coach before the game.

- What is the role in the victory of the filled NSC "Olympic"?

- 95 percent (smiles). I want to thank our fans - the support was at the highest level, and the victory was dedicated to the defenders of Ukraine. Without them, this match could not be ...

- Given the current form of our national team, is there a desire for the Euro to start tomorrow?

- I believe that by the beginning of this tournament the main team of the country will be even stronger.
