On Monday March 28 Ukraine national team, who continue to prepare for Euro 2016 soccer championship in France, will play against Wales in a friendly match in Kyiv.

According to Ukrinform, this match takes place at Olympic Stadium and kicks off at 21.00 local time. Live match broadcast is available on Futbol 1 and Ukrayina TV channels.

The tie versus Wales will be the last home match for Ukraine squad before Euro 2016. Prior to that, our team had played with the Welsh twice - in 2001 in the qualification for the 2002World Cup. Both ties ended with a draw - 1:1.

According to Ukraine head coach Mykhailo Fomenko, after spontaneous previous friendly with the Cypriots in Odesa (1:0) the coach staff and football players have made their conclusions. There were objective and subjective reasons for previous lackluster performance - key ones are injuries of leading players and the lack of teamwork among newly signed up players who are still on their way to full adaptation to the team.
