Recall that the national team of Ukraine will play in a yellow uniform, the English will perform in traditional white colors!

Joint photo in memory of the British and Ukrainians with the Pease flag. Without further ado. We thank England for unwavering support of Ukraine in the fight against the Russian military invasion!

The national anthem of Great Britain was also played! The players participate in the traditional welcome handshake!

Despite the fact that Ukraine is a guest in today's game, it seems as if the entire stadium is singing "Neither the glory nor the will of Ukraine has died yet"!

The national anthem of Ukraine is playing! Football players perform Slaven, wrapped in Ukrainian flags!

The teams have already entered the Wembley football field! Harry Kane was presented with a special award as the best goalscorer in the history of the English national team.

It is expected that about 85 thousand fans will come to watch the match at "Wembley"! 4200 of them will support the national team of Ukraine in the away sectors!

Oleksandr Zinchenko, Vitaly Mykolenko and Mykhailo Mudryk - 3 players of the base of the national team of Ukraine, who play in the English Premier League. Today they have an additional responsibility for the match, in which the boys will be 300% more difficult than it was during the sparring match with the English "Brentford" the day before.

Midfielder Oleksandr Zinchenko will lead the national team of Ukraine with the captain's armband. The midfielder will also play his first official match for the main team Georgiy Sudakov, and for the defender Alexandra Wedding - this is a debut!

Also, the English team will play this match without defender Luke Shaw, who was sent off in the previous match with the Italian team, and midfielder Phil Foden, which doctors urgently operated on.

Harry Kane is the main threat of the England team. In each of the 9 qualifying matches, the English striker certainly hit the opponent's goal, scoring 13 goals!

Acting head coach of the national team Ruslan Rotan at the pre-match press conference remembered the previous game of the Ukrainians against the English at Euro-2020 and emphasized that the team "will draw conclusions, especially about the game during standards."

A very difficult match is expected for Ruslan Rotan's team! The Ukrainians have never defeated the English on their field and are considered outsiders of the meeting. However, the "blue and yellow" have not suffered a single defeat in the last 10 matches of European qualification. And the previous match between the teams at Wembley in September 2012 ended in a draw - 1:1.

Good evening, dear fans! Today, the national team of Ukraine begins its journey in the qualification campaign of the 2024 European Championship. Our boys will start an away confrontation with the England national team at "Wembley"!
