Ukrainians lost points for the first time in the new season of the tournament.
On Tuesday, June 14, in the Polish city Lodz Ukraine hosted Ireland as part of the League of Nations 2022/23 season.
In the first half, the Ukrainians acted rather slowly and created a minimum of dangerous moments. It is worth noting the shots of Malinowski and Mykolenko, which the goalkeeper managed.
At the same time, Ireland managed to take its chance. Collins intercepted, then bypassed several players, went on a date with debutant Riznyk and sent the ball into the bottom corner of the goal.
At the start of the second half, the Ukrainian team equalized. Yarmolenko turned the defender on the flank and passed along the goal, after which Dovbyk sent the ball into the net./p>
