The 2024/25 Nations League playoff matches will take place on March 20 and 23
Honored Coach of Ukraine, former player and coach of Dynamo Kyiv Leonid Buryak commented on the League of Nations draw, in which Ukraine will fight with Belgium for the right to promotion.
“Albania is not Belgium. And we have not yet played a single match after which we could come out and say that it was fantastic and we liked everything about this match! Yes, in the match with Georgia a number of players played quite well. And, of course, for matches with Belgium we need to call up players who will play offensively and be relevant to the national team.”
The blue-yellows met with Domenico Tedesco’s team quite recently, in the 3rd round of Euro 2024 – then a goalless draw (0:0) was recorded, which left Ukraine outside the playoffs of the continental championship.
The 2024/25 Nations League playoff matches will take place on March 20 and 23. In the first match, the Ukrainian national team will be the hosts, the return match will take place on the Belgian field.
Let us remind you that on November 19, Ukraine completed the group cycle of the League of Nations. Thanks to the victory over Albania in the final round (as well as the Czech Republic’s victory over Georgia in a parallel match), Rebrov’s team finished in second place in group B1. Over six rounds, Ukraine scored eight points, recording two wins, two draws and two losses.
The Belgian national team took third place in Group 3 of Division A, gaining 4 points. France and Italy advanced from the quartet to the quarterfinals of the League of Nations, while the Israeli team dropped to Division B.
