On matchday four of the Nations League, Andriy Shevchenko’s team hosted the formidable Spanish team. Having withstood strong pressure in the first half, during which Georgy Buschan saved several times, after the break, the blue-yellow began to counterattack more actively. In the end, one of these attacks ended with a goal: Yarmolenko led Tsygankov one by one and shot De Gea. The opponent could not save at least one draw. This is Ukraine’s first win over Spain after seven games.
In another game in the fourth group of Division A, the teams played a true thriller.
