Attacker of the Netherlands U-21 national team Miljon Manchuf commented on the victory over Ukraine (2:0) in the match of the 3rd round of the group stage of Euro-2025 U-21.
Miljon Manchuf (photo: uefa.com)— We have a good team with great quality, but, of course, we did not show this in the first two matches. And today we knew that we had to stay focused for all 90 minutes, not give the opponents chances for counterattacks. We play attacking football, very high, so we cannot afford bad passes. So we understood that we had to be as concentrated as possible because it’s all or nothing. This is teamwork — all players, coaching staff, and everyone involved.
I watched the matches of the Ukrainians. They play football well, they are a good team with classy players. We did not have the start we wanted, but we hope to show our qualities at the next stage. I am looking forward to it,” said Manchuf as quoted by the UEFA press service.
