The youth women's national team of Ukraine WU-19 will take part in League A matches of the second round of Euro-2023 qualification in Denmark. The blue and yellow will play in group 5 together with Denmark (host), Sweden and Iceland. 

On March 31, the blue-and-yellow team traveled to Denmark via Poland. The Ukrainian women arrived in Kege, where, thanks to the support of the Danish Football Union, they held a short-term gathering. It is in this city that today's match against Sweden (starting at 15.30:2023 p.m. Kyiv time) will see our team begin its battle for the finals of Euro-XNUMX.

"I am more of the opinion that all participants have equal chances before the starting whistle. That is why I will set up my wards so that they demonstrate their best qualities in every match. And the minimum task for the national team of Ukraine is to keep registration in the elite division," — Told me the day before, in a comment to the official website of the UAF, the head coach of the youth women's national team of Ukraine WU-19 Valery Palamarchuk.
