Ukraine draws with Czech Republic in Nations League

Benfica’s goalkeeper was a starter and went into the break losing, making several saves that prevented the score from getting bigger; Dobvyk, from the penalty spot, secured the final draw (1-1)

Ukraine managed to show the STOP signal to the Czech Republic , leader of Group 1 of the Nations League B, in the game this Monday night, and managed to get a point that was still not enough to prevent them from falling to the bottom of the group.

With Trubin , Benfica’s goalkeeper, starting in the game that took place in Wroclaw, Poland, the Ukrainian team showed some difficulties, especially in the first half, but managed to overturn the disadvantage they went into the break with and forced the Czech Republic to draw .

It was the visitors who took the lead in the 18th minute, through Lukas Cerv, with a shot from the edge of the area, and then it was Trubin who kept the deficit at bay by the smallest of margins, preventing the Czech Republic from going into the break with a more comfortable result, this after also having seen a goal by Vitik, in the 45+3′, disallowed by VAR.

More daring after the break, the Ukrainian team increased the pressure and managed to equalise the contest in the 53rd minute, with Dovbyk making no mistake from the 11-metre mark, accurately converting the penalty kick that would seal the final result.
