The Ukrainians entered the fight with an absolutely experimental squad, several players debuted for the country’s main team, including 18-year-old central defender Ilya Zabarny. Due to injuries and the coronavirus, 14 players from the national team were eliminated; even coach and former legendary goalkeeper Alexander Shovkovsky was announced for the match (but never appeared on the field).
From the first minutes, the Ukrainians lacked teamwork. At the same time, France was catching up.
In the 9th minute, the 17-year-old prodigy Eduardo Kamavinga was the fastest in the penalty area and “soaked” the scoreboard. On the 24th and 33rd the French captain Olivier Giroud distinguished himself, who played the 100th match in the national team. In the 39th minute, Vitaly Mikolenko stole the hat-trick from the hero of the day, cutting the ball into his own goal. Giroud “thanked” the young Ukrainian by patting him on the head. The result of the first half is 4: 0.
On 53, Viktor Tsygankov went to the center alone, shot under the goalkeeper’s supporting leg and scored a goal. However, on the 65th, Corentin Tolisso scored the fifth goal for the French with a billiard shot. At 82, Kylian Mbappé, alone, finished all the defense and scored in the style of Ronaldo’s “nibbler”. On the 89th, Antoine Griezmann put an end to the game: a rebound from Zabarny helped him distinguish himself.
7: 1. Ukraine is losing record and continues to prepare for the Nations League matches against Germany (October 10) and Spain (October 13).
Zorya goalkeeper Nikita Shevchenko will arrive at the team’s location in Kiev, the press service of the Ukrainian Football Association reported yesterday.
