Maxence Kakere believes that he and his partners should reach the semi-finals, winning the competition.
The match of the European Youth Championship against the Ukrainian team ended in humiliation and disappointment for the French. So said the captain of the “blue” Maxence Kakere.
According to him, he and his partners are expected to reach the semi-finals of Euro 2023 U-21. However, they failed to do so, although they were ahead of the score.
“It’s a big disappointment. We didn’t do what we needed to do to win this match. We were 1-0 up but made some small mistakes that gave them the lead. We didn’t score in the second half. We were too disappointed.
In the second half, we had more ball possession than them but we didn’t create enough chances. As a result, this affected the account.
It’s a shame because we had a big goal to enter the semi-finals, but we made a mistake. We must take responsibility for this,” Kakere quoted UEFA’s official website as saying.
Recall that Ukraine confidently defeated France and reached the semi-finals of Euro 2023.
