The Ukrainian U-18 national team (players born in 2008) will hold a training camp in Croatia from October 5 to October 16. During this camp, the team will participate in an international friendly tournament.

The matches will take place in the town of Poreč. The opponents for Ukraine will be Wales, Sweden, and Croatia.

Today, October 8, the blue-and-yellow team will play their opening match against the hosts. Kick-off is at 13:30 local time (Kyiv time). Live stream available on the UAF YouTube channel.

“We have met Croatia three times recently, so we know their capabilities. We also got to know Sweden at the last camp. So there is some information about them. The only mystery for us is the Welsh team. But that's not the main thing; we want to play our game and stick to it. Of course, there are moments in opponents' games that we will pay attention to, but we do not intend to adjust ourselves to anyone,” said coach Volodymyr Samborskyi ahead of the match.
