The Spaniards made it to the semi-finals of the Euro U21 and after a 5-1 win over Ukraine, they will face England in the final. The outsiders were leading, but fell apart from the first goal they scored. At the same time, the extreme quality of the Spaniards in the end must be highlighted.
The Spaniards started actively and threatened in the eighth minute, but Oihan Sancet missed the goalkeeper from a sharp angle. Álex Baena could have punished Ukraine’s passive approach, but he shot very inaccurately in the penalty area.
The opponent took the first big chance, a great individual action of Mykhailo Mudryk was finished by Artem Bondarenko. In the 16th minute, Abel Ruiz rounded the goalkeeper and finished into a half-empty net.
And seven minutes later, the game was turned around. Sancet sent a shot from the edge of the box and sent the Spaniards into the lead with a ground shot. After that, the game settled down a bit until Danylo Sikan acrobatically missed the goalkeeper in the 40th minute after another Mudryk cross.
After the substitution, the Ukrainians were more active, but it was the Spaniards who struck. Antonio Blanco shot from the penalty spot to the back post.
Bondarenko had the reduction on his feet in the 57th minute, but Arnau Tenas pulled off a superb save.
On the other hand, the other side celebrated. Aimar Oroz cleared the ball to the back post with a technical shot. Miranda had the fifth goal in the 76th minute, but a good cross only ended up in the side netting.
Two minutes later, the Spaniards still celebrated, with Sergio Gomez sweeping the left post. The match was already winding down, the favourite still hit the bar and after winning 5:1, the final match against England. Unlike Albion, they have to travel from Romania to Georgia.
