Slovak national team defender Denis Vavro - about the match with Belgium (1:0) in the 1st round of the group stage of Euro-2024 and the upcoming game with Ukraine in the next round.
Denis Vavro"In the first half we played great, we had chances to make the score both 2:0 and 3:0, but we failed. After the break, the Belgians started to play differently, began to hold the ball more, but we coped, except for a few moments. Today everything was decided by the team's play, we perfectly protected each other in defense and valued the ball. This allowed us to keep our goal intact.
I am sure that the Belgian national team will still reveal itself at Euro 2024. It is good that it did not happen in the match against us.
After this victory we have great emotions, but they should be enjoyed only today, tomorrow is a new day, we need to prepare for the match against Ukraine. We do not have much time for this, and we also need to recover after the game with the Belgians.
The Ukrainians unexpectedly lost, so they will play their best against them, and for us it will be an even more difficult match than against Belgium," said Vavro while speaking to the media after the match with Belgium.
