Riancho explained the departure of the Ukrainian national team from Euro 2024 by the fatigue of the players
Spaniard Raul Riancho, who worked on the coaching staff of the Ukrainian national team, explained the team’s elimination from the 2024 European Football Championship. His words are quoted by Sovetsky Sport.
According to the former coach of the Ukrainians, the national team players were too tired playing for their clubs. “Lunin gave everything he had this season for Real, Zinchenko fought hard for the championship in England, Dovbyk gave 100 percent for Girona. That’s why they weren’t enough for the national team,” said Riancho.
The Spaniard added that the Ukrainians were unlucky at the Euro. “Of course, Ukraine was a playoff team. But this is a unique situation. If they had conceded fewer goals in the match against Romania, everything would have turned out differently,” Riancho said.
Ukraine at Euro 2024 scored four points in three matches, like the rest of its rivals in the quartet. The team finished in last place in the group due to the worst goal difference.
