In the last match of the qualifying round of Euro-2022 (U-17), the youth national team of Ukraine (players born in 2005), in order to have a chance to get to the elite round, could not lose the favorite of the competition - the team of Portugal.

However, the match did not start very well for the blue and yellows, as in the 13th minute they were in the role of those who play. Our goalkeeper Kravets broke the rules in his penalty area, and Gonsalves opened the scoring from the penalty spot. It seemed that everything went wrong, but Oleg Kuznetsov's wards took only 10 minutes to recover.

The national team of Ukraine leveled the game, and under the curtain of half was generally sharper than the opponent. Kremchanin scored dangerously, Matkevych hit the frame of the goal. The Ukrainians outnumbered their opponent twice in the number of strikes. Therefore, it is not surprising that the teams went to the break on an equal footing. Gusev scored a goal for the visitors in the 43rd minute. 1: 1.

The second half began with a shot on goal by the same Matkevich. However, in the 57th minute, a second of relaxation led to the fact that the Portuguese took the lead again. After the corner, Rodriguez scored. 1: 2.

But in the 61st minute, Zen equalized again with an accurate shot. After that, the game calmed down a bit, the team did not create goal situations. But, as it turned out, the Ukrainians lulled the vigilance of the Portuguese players. In the 81st minute Kremchanin brought the blue and yellows ahead. 3: 2.

In the end, the fight ended with the victory of Oleg Kuznetsov's wards. Starting the tournament with a defeat, the national team of Ukraine from the first place went to the elite round of the European Championship.
