Sergey SAPRONOV: “Ukrainians were out of competition at the tournament”

Coach of the girls’ team of Ukraine WU-17 Sergey Sapronov analyzed the results of the first round of the Euro-2025 selection, where his wards took first place in the quartet.

– No, Ukrainian women were out of competition in a convincing style. Only in the opening match, with Moldova, due to the lack of information about the opponents, there was excessive excitement of the girls, which led to annoying losses of the ball. During the break, he asked the girls to act more calmly, with long passes he found Karina Lespuh, who was pushed to the point of attack and opened up a lot. The wards listened and in the second half scored five goals in the opponents’ goal, but did not miss a single one in their own.

– But in the second match, even this grandmaster’s performance line was blocked. In the confrontation with the hosts, a crushing victory was achieved 10:0

– We already had enough information on what style the Maltese play, because we could watch their opening match with the Romanians. We acted in the usual 4-3-3 scheme, using vertical passes in the third zone, which the hosts were not ready for.

– In the final match, with the Romanians, the Ukrainians even had to tie in order to take the first place thanks to the advantage of additional indicators.

– Of course, no one was going to play defense. A quick goal added confidence, but then the ball stubbornly did not want to fly into the Romanian net. Only one Lespuh did not realize two exits alone with the opponent’s goalkeeper. However, in the compensation time, it was the restless Karina who scored the second time, removing the question of the winner from the agenda. And at the beginning of the second half, the score became devastating after an own goal by the Romanians.

– Which of your wards do you have fewer complaints about?

– To Anna Avramenko, Zoryana Gladun, Viktoria Savkina, who were the oldest and led the way. I am also satisfied with Karina Lespuh, who scored five goals.

The main thing is that we managed to win a ticket to League A and now we are waiting for the draw of the second round of the selection, which will take place on December 6. Then we will learn about the next rivals with whom we will compete next spring.
