Denmark opened the scoring in the match against Ukraine with a powerful shot from 20 meters

Ukraine’s national football team conceded a quick goal already in the 13th minute of the friendly match against Denmark and had to chase the opponent.

Patrick Dorgu took advantage of the free space in front of the penalty area and beat Anatoliy Trubin’s goal with a powerful shot from a distance of about 20 meters.

After a rather cautious start to the game, when the teams created almost no dangerous moments, Denmark’s coach Brian Riemer switched the midfielders’ flanks, and Dorgu found himself on the right.

The 21-year-old Manchester United player received the ball, shifted to the center, left his marker behind, and, having gained space, struck powerfully into the goal area.

The Ukrainian goalkeeper saw the moment of the shot well, but could not save it. Ukraine’s defenders gave the opponent too much space in front of the penalty area, and Vitaliy Mykolenko failed to stop the Dane at the crucial moment.

For Dorgu, this goal was his fourth in the Danish national team jersey. In total, it was his 14th match for the Danish team.
