Before the match "Rijeka" - Ukraine. There is an opportunity to win the first victory over the Croats on their field
Today, May 18, in Rijeka, the national team of Ukraine will hold a friendly match with the local club of the same name (starting at 19.00).

There was another meeting - in June 1993 - on the field of Split's "Hajduk" with a local club after the defeat in Zagreb. Then Oleh Bazylevych's charges lost - 0: 2, at the end of the match Serhiy Bezhenar (Dnipro) did not score a penalty. The goal of our national team was defended by Bohdan Strontsitsky from Karpaty, who did not play in the national team at the official level.
