Today, on July 15, the final tournament of the European Under-19 Championship begins in Northern Ireland. The youth national team of Ukraine (players not older than 2005) is among the eight participants.
Our team's opening match against the hosts will take place in Larne at the Inver Park Stadium.
The game starts at 19:00 local time (21:00 Kyiv time). Norway and Italy are also in our group. The other quartet includes Denmark, Turkey, France and Spain.
It should be added that the top two teams from each group will advance to the semifinals. On July 28, the main trophy will be played at Windsor Park in Belfast. The match for third place is not provided, but for the fifth place - will take place, as it will be five representatives that Europe will delegate to the 2025 FIFA U-20 World Cup, which will be held in Chile with the participation of 24 teams. So the winner of the match between the third teams of the groups will join the four semifinalists.
