Mykhailo Mudryk was the star of the show as Ukraine stunned France to win 3-1 in the Under-21 European Championship quarter-final. His teammate Georgiy Sudakov put in an impressive performance, scoring twice, and now Mudryk is hoping the 20-year-old Shakhtar Donetsk player will join him at Chelsea.
Mudryk spoke about his assist for Sudakov after the match, saying: “Usually it’s the opposite - he gives it to me and I score. And now he scored a penalty, and I thought – I need to score more. I do everything for my friend, I hope he just keeps scoring. I’m just promoting him!”
When asked if it would be great to see Sudakov at Chelsea, Mudryk replied: “That would be great.”
Ukraine now takes on Spain in the semi-finals on Wednesday, while England will be facing Israel for the other spot in the final. Mudryk said: “We are all great. Today we played better than the French. We rejoice, but only today. Our goal is to win the tournament. Step by step. Today we rejoice, and tomorrow all thoughts are about the Spaniards. We will definitely re-watch the group round match against Spain. It will be like a blank slate for us, on which everything is written. And from this we will determine how it will be better for us to play against them.”
