The women’s national teams of Ukraine and Belgium will play the first match on November 29, after which they will meet in the return game on December 3 in Leuven
Head coach Ukrainian women’s team Vladimir Pyatenko commented on the victorious match against the Turkish national team (2:0), and also said that nominally the home match of the qualifying playoffs for Euro 2025 against Belgium his team will hold in Turkish Antalya.
“It is important that in Chisinau there were no such differences in the actions of my players as in the first match, in Istanbul. The game of our team was more balanced and compact, giving confidence and a comfortable advantage of two goals scored, which we managed to achieve even before the break. I am glad that we not only won confidently, but also kept our possessions intact.”
“Does Belgium occupy a higher place in the rankings than Ukraine? You know, this shouldn’t be scary, because everything will be decided on the football field. Everything will depend on the level of training, on whether the teams will be able to avoid personnel losses, on the mood.”
“We decided to choose Antalya, Turkey, where there should be no problems with logistics issues, and the weather conditions will allow us to prepare well. We are leaving for Turkey on November 20, a week-long training camp is planned.”
“What information do we have about Belgium? The backbone of this team consists of players playing for well-known teams from top countries. The Belgians are geared towards quick counterattacks and effectively use second tempo attacks. But we are also progressing, moreover, I am convinced that there are no invincible opponents.”
The first match of the Euro 2025 qualifying playoff round between the women’s national teams of Ukraine and Belgium will be held on November 29 in Antalya, Turkey. The return date is December 3 in Leuven, Belgium. The winner of this two-match confrontation will receive a ticket to the continental championship.
