Ukraine will play a friendly match against Slovakia

The national team of Ukraine will play friendly match against Slovakia.

The head coach of the national team of Ukraine Andriy Shevchenko after the defeat against Croatia in the decisive match of the qualifying round for the world Cup have appealed to football Federation of Ukraine with the request to organize the next international friendly window.

Now, FIFA has officially confirmed that on November 10 at the Arena Lviv team of Ukraine will play a friendly match against Slovakia.

“Arena Lviv” will match the national team of Ukraine for the first time since 14 November 2015, when the stadium of the main team of the country in the play-offs for Euro 2016 beat Slovenia (2:0).

In the world Cup qualifiers Slovakia took second place and was able to count on getting into the play-offs, but was the worst among teams that took in their groups the second places.

The national teams of Ukraine and Slovakia will hold the sixth match in the last 15 years. Friendly matches in 2002 and 2004 ended with the score 1:1, and “blue-yellow” in the semi-finals of the international tournament in Cyprus won with the score 3:2. In the selection for Euro 2016 Slovakia took the victory from Kiev (1:0), and the return match ended in a goalless draw (0:0).
