The famous Ukrainian coach Myron Markevych expressed his opinion on the failed performance of the Ukrainian U21 national team at Euro-2025.

An example with Brazhko — leading against the Finns 2:0, 5 minutes to go, you know he’s on the card. Sub him out already. Brazhko gets a second card and doesn’t play against the Netherlands. A significant loss.
Moreover, against the Netherlands, there were two left-footed defenders in the center of defense. This is not the level. At least they could have reached the quarter-finals. The guys wanted to. This is a coaching mistake,” — Markevych is quoted by the Telegram channel “Vzbіrna”.
