After the match between Ireland and Ukraine (0:1), head coach Stephen Kenny spoke about the game with the media.

"I said after the match with Armenia that my team did not deserve to be defeated. I am ready to say the same now. We started well and pressed the opponent in the first 20 minutes of the game. But then the game leveled off. We had opportunities to score, but did not use them. The opponent, on the contrary, took his chance very well.

Ukraine has a great team, and its young players today showed a class and a desire to fight, which did not differ from those shown by more experienced players in the game against Scotland. But I repeat - in my opinion, today's game was even, "- said Kenny.
