Alexander Kosenko’s team led with a score of 3:0, but allowed the Czech team to reduce the gap to a minimum
Ukrainian national futsal team played the first friendly match against Czech Republic — Alexander Kosenko’s team won with a score of 3:2.
Daniil Abakshin opened the scoring in the match in the 1st minute, and by the middle of the first half Ukraine was already leading with a score of 3:0 – Igor Chernyavsky and Rostislav Semenchenko also scored a goal each.
In the second half, the Czech Republic managed to reduce the gap to a minimum, but the final victory from the blue-yellows was still there.
Tomorrow the teams of the Czech Republic and Ukraine will hold a second friendly match, which will also take place in the city of Frydek-Mistek. The meeting starts at 20:00 Kyiv time.
Let us remind you that in October the Ukrainian national team reached the semi-finals of the 2024 World Cup. Kosenko’s team dramatically lost to Brazil, but defeated France (7:1) in the match for third place and won bronze medals at the world championship. The Brazilians beat Argentina in the final and became world champions.
Two Ukrainian football players became winners of individual nominations. Daniil Abakshin received the “silver boot” of the tournament, and Rostislav Semenchenko became the third best player of the tournament, receiving the “bronze ball”.
