Ukraine's midfielder Taras Stepanenko told us what he expects from tomorrow's Euro 2024 qualifying match with North Macedonia.
"The national team of Northern Macedonia is a good team, we are preparing for it very seriously. If memory serves me correctly, many of the players from that team who played with us at Euro 2020 have now also received a challenge. They also acted according to the same tactical scheme as today.
The match against North Macedonia at Euro 2020? Of course, I remember that game, it was very difficult. For some time we were leading and had more chances, kept the ball. But then we missed a penalty, the opponent seized the initiative, had two or three very dangerous chances, and we were lucky in the end," Stepanenko said at the pre-match press conference held in Skopje today.
