The National Football Team of Ukraine will play with the Portugal national team in a Euro 2020 qualifying match in Kyiv on Oct. 14, 2019.

The FFU’s press service said the respective decision was made by the Federation’s executive committee on Dec. 27.

The match will be held at the Olimpiysky National Sports Complex and will start at 9.45 p.m. Kyiv time.

As reported earlier, in the Euro 2020 qualifiers, Ukraine had been included in the same group with Portugal, Serbia, Lithuania, and Luxembourg.

The qualifying tournament will be held from March to November 2019. Two teams from each group will make into the Euro 2020 finals.

In case of a failure in the qualifying tournament, the Ukrainian national football team will stand one more chance to get to Euro 2020 in March 2020 through the League of Nations playoff where it has earned the first place in its group.
