Icelandic Arnar Gunnlaugsson, who is currently in charge of Vikingur Reykjavik, told what he expects from the final play-off match of the Euro 2024 qualifying round Ukraine vs Iceland, which will take place tomorrow in Wroclaw.
Arnar Gunnlaugsson"Our defensive play in the match against Israel (4:1, play-off semi-final - ed.) was far from ideal. There is something to fix for the match with Ukraine. As a coach, I don't believe that we can be lucky twice in a row. In the game with Israel there were some things that the opponent forgave us, but we can't get away with that against a strong Ukrainian team.
It was an emotional victory, and many people in euphoria think that everything was great and amazing. It can lead to the temptation to play the Ukraine national team in the same way, but if we do that, things will go badly against such an opponent, believe me. In the match against Israel there were really a few things that bothered me," mbl.is quoted Gunnlaugsson as saying.
