Vitaly Litvinov won the eFootball selection tournament for the right to represent Ukraine at the European Esports Championship 2022, which will be held from September 6 to 10 in Podgorica (Montenegro).
The competition took place over two days, July 23-24, at the base of FC Rukh academy in Lviv in the eFootball PES 2022 discipline on the PS5 platform.
On Saturday, participants competed among themselves within three groups. Group 1 was confidently won by Maksym Andrasyuk, winning all matches. Ihor Lyubchak became the strongest in Quartet 2 with five victories, and the leadership in Group 3 was divided between Oleksiy Bogdyazh and Vitaly Lytvynov.

On Sunday, the top eight participants played decisive playoff series. Ihor Lyubchak, Maksym Andrasiuk and Vitaly Litvinov reached the semi-finals, but Oleksiy Bohdiazh unexpectedly stopped, losing in two matches to Oleksandr Yatsenko.
A real drama happened in the first semi-final. Ihor Lyubchak completely defeated Vitaly Lytvynov in the first match, but he did not give up and first won the next match with overtime and nine goals, and later - and a ticket to the finals. The second semi-final pair played only two matches: Maksym Andrasiuk confidently overcame the resistance of Oleksandr Yatsenko.

The final confrontation between Maksym Andrasyuk and Vitaly Litvynov became the highlight of the entire tournament. It featured willful rebounds, an unpredictable series of penalties, and a championship goal in stoppage time. Despite the fact that Maksym Andrasyuk led twice in the final series (1:0 and 0:0, 4:3 on penalties), Vitaly Lytvynov recovered both times (4:1 and 3:0), and in the decisive match the only goal in the 91st minute brought him a strong-willed victory at the tournament and a ticket to the European e-Football Championship in Montenegro!
The UAEF would like to thank all the players who have found the opportunity to return to the game and take part in competitions despite the difficult times, as well as the eFootball fans who joined the broadcasts on the association's YouTube channel!
