In the team’s penultimate match for Euro 2021, Ruslan Rotan’s guards beat Malta, which closes the table in our group with one point.
The game started with a quick goal: Dubinchak, one of the best players in the game, opened on the left wing and received a divided pass, fired into the center of the area and Kuharevich was left unattended there.
This goal simply put the Ukrainian team out of the game. We watched the speed and aggression from the “blue-yellow” only until the first goal was scored, and then the football became a din: as if the goals themselves were flying towards the hosts’ goal.
This was partly the case, as the Maltese defender brought Kuharevich close and gave him the second goal of the match.
But after that, Malta began to move forward and create opportunities more and more actively. Not without the help of our defense line and midfield, who were not involved in this game at all. And if in the first half the gate frame saved our team from Busuttil’s goal, then after the break the ugly game of Sudakov, Baboglo and Sirota, which three of them welded in the central circle and took Eluni one on one , did not save anything from a failure.
Even Milovanov’s goal, which closed Kravchuk’s chamber, did not save the impression of the ugly game. I finished Isaenko’s general mood: he earned himself a penalty and executed it the way his team played today, weakly and ingeniously.
The point of the match was put by Shevtsov, stealing the goalkeeper out of the penalty area and breaking into the goal, which was already defended by the defender. 1: 4 is an absolutely emotionless victory, lacking in joy and tournament significance.
