On Tuesday, May 10, the tournament of the second stage of the Euro 2022 WU-19 qualification in League A with the participation of the Ukrainian women’s youth team began in Austria.
“Blue-yellow” in the first match lost to rivals from Norway – 0:5 .
The Ukrainians conceded already in the 9th minute – after a corner Tandberg just headed the ball. Soon Glushchenko could even the score, but after a solo pass she did not hit the far corner. Then the Scandinavians managed to score again when, in the 18th minute, Serbo hit the target from the penalty line.
After that, Glushchenko delivered a good blow, but the goalkeeper of the rivals coped. Norwegians continued to own the initiative and created new dangerous moments. The Ukrainians responded with a classy header by Glushchenko, after which the ball licked the crossbar. However, by the end of the first half, the Scandinavians scored again – Isaksen closed the flank feed.
In the second half of the meeting, the opponents of the blue-yellows only increased their advantage. Several shots were parried by Boklach, while in the 75th minute Panengstuen coped with a good attempt by Glushchenko. By the end of the meeting as part of the Norwegian team, Isaksen scored a double. In stoppage time by the referee, Boklach managed to parry the penalty, but Fink managed to finish off.
In the next match, which will take place in Bad Wimsbach-Neidharting, on May 13, the Ukrainian team will meet with Austria.
Last fall, the Blue-Yellows finished third in the League A group of the first round of Euro 2022 WU-19 qualification and retained their place in the elite division and the chances of reaching the final tournament.
In December 2021, the draw for the second round of the UEFA Women’s Under-19 Championship selection took place. According to its results, the Ukrainian team WU-19 got into group A4.
Recall that the UEFA Executive Committee at a meeting in Vienna approved the schedule of the main part of the European Championship 2024, which will be accepted by Germany.
