Ukraine U-20 win the group and reach 2019 World Cup playoffs

After wins against USA and Qatar it was clear the Yellow-Blues would perform in the round of 16, but it was still to be found out which place they would take in the group table. A draw was enough to win the group.

Sikan opened the score 30 minutes into the game after cross from Kashchuk. In a stoppage time Lunin cleared the shot by Tijani from the spot. Early in the second half referee awarded another penalty for Nigeria and this time Tijani didn’t fail – 1:1. That’s the final score of the game.

Three FC Dynamo Kyiv performers featured for Ukraine in this match – Denys Popov, Serhiy Buletsa and Vladyslav Supriaha.

On June 3 Ukraine U-20 will face one of the teams that finish third in their groups in the round of 16.
