Ukraine
North Macedonia and Ukraine go head to head at National Arena Toshe Proeski in what is expected to be one of the most interesting games of Friday’s program. North Macedonia kicked off their Euro 2024 qualifying campaign in great manner, with the team beating Malta in front of home fans, but they will have a mountain to climb against Ukraine. Blagoja Milevski rested several first-team regulars is a friendly against Faroe Islands, but he is going to field the best possible side this time out.
The Yellow-Blues, on the other hand, failed to spoil England’s party at Wembley Stadium in March, but they are surely capable of matching the former Yugoslav Republic. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Ukraine boss has a number of high-profile players to choose from, such as Zinchenko, Malinovsky, Yaremchuk, and Chelsea January signing Mudryk. In their last meeting in a competitive match Ukraine defeated North Macedonia 2-1.
Highlighted Team (Ukraine):
After the country had gained independence from the Soviet Union, Ukraine played their first international match in 1992, and they have come a long way since. Zbirna have only once played at the World Cup finals so far, and they did really well to reach the quarter-finals in 2006, while they co-hosted the Euro 2012 with Poland, albeit failing to get past the group stage.
The generation that secured qualification for the Euro 2016 finals in France is arguably the most talented ever, with Yevhen Konoplyanka, Andriy Yarmolenko, Ruslan Rotan and Roman Zozulya the leading players, but plenty more talent present in Mikhail Fomenko’s squad.
Similar to the trademark style of former Soviet teams, Ukraine bases their tactics on rock-solid defence and swift counter-attacks, but it has to be noted that Zbirna possess a lot more technical skills and attacking potential than most other former Russian republics. Everything suggests that the most successful period in the history of the national team is ahead of them.
