Bosnia and Herzegovina U-19 football team has won their final Elite Qualifying Round match against Poland with 2:0. The match was played in Mostar at the Vrapcici stadium.
Coach Karacic: "Congratulations to our players who played excellent the whole time. Unfortunately, we lost to Montenegro in final moments of that second match. For most of these players, this is their final match in a junior team, and I thank them for their cooperation. They have immense talent and can make impressive careers. I'd also like to thank people who were involved in this tournament, and workers at the stadiums and hotels."
Ukraine won the other match against Montenegro also with 2:0 and managed to qualify for European Championship which will be held later this year in Greece. In our group 5, Ukraine finished first with seven points, followed by Montenegro (6), Bosnia and Herzegovina (4) and finally Poland (0).
