Ukraine's captain Mykola Matvienko commented on the 2-1 victory over Iceland and the team's progress to Euro 2024.
Mykola Matvienko (photo: uaf.ua)- We were nervous because a ticket to the Euros was at stake. This is very serious. The team is young and everyone is afraid to take the first step. When we concede, this disappears and we start playing normal football.
The captain's armband? I tried to advise and help everyone. Unfortunately, we let the opponent score and our goalkeeper did not see the moment of the shot. When we concede the ball, we start playing better. It frees our hands," said Mykola.
