Famous Ukrainian TV presenter Igor Tsyganik shared his forecast for the Euro 2023 U-21 U-21 match between the youth national teams of Ukraine and Spain, which will take place today in Bucharest.
- Ukraine has shown that it can play very well against the favourites. I want to say that the Spain U-21 match against Switzerland U-21, which I watched in full, did not convince me of the absolute strength of the Spanish team. As for me, the French were more interesting during the group stage of this Euro than the Spaniards. Ukraine has already felt, as they say, "the smell of blood", "the smell of gold". And I think that our youth team will have an extremely difficult game against Furia Roja, because the Ukrainian players have already spent a lot of moral and psychological strength during these matches.
But I believe that Ukraine will be able to recover both physically and mentally, to approach the game as focused as possible, focused on the fight to reach the final. Let's not forget about the phenomenon of Mudryk and Sudakov, which can work again. It is noticeable that they can produce results at this level of mutual understanding. I am betting on the victory of Ukraine U-21 in the main time of the meeting. I'll also venture to guess that Mykhailo Mudryk will score a goal," Tsyganik is confident.
