The head coach of the Ukrainian U-20 national team, Dmytro Mykhailenko, commented on his team’s victory over South Korea (2:1) in the opening match of the U-20 World Cup 2025.
“Emotions? We are very happy. We are glad for the victory; it was hard-earned. There are no easy teams here.
I think we deserved this victory. The first half was very good, in the second half we were under pressure, but we created chances after set pieces. We need to analyze the mistakes we made, but now the main task is to recover the players because it was not easy in the second half,” said the head coach of the Ukrainian national team, Dmytro Mykhailenko, in a comment to FIFA.
