The Russian national team U-19 defeated the Czech Republic (7-0) and reached the final stage of the European Championship with the highest score: three wins in three games and a total goal difference of 19-0.
Our team was not going to play for a draw, which suited the Russian national team. Likewise, the rival from the first minutes imposed an intense fight throughout the court. Tense moments enough at both gates, while the guests did not hesitate to beat from any position, while connecting the goalkeeper. Our gate guard Denis Subbotin deflected the threat.

An important first goal happened in the 6th minute and, to the delight of the traditionally crowded hall, he was scored by players in red T-shirts. Samusenko gave out for Gereykhanov, and he did not miss with a blow to the touch.

Immediately Subbotin coped with another lunge of the opponent, and ours responded with Samusenko’s second assist: The Siberian by the diagonal from the depth found a spot in the corner of the goalkeeper Okulov: the captain effectively ferried a projectile into the net. At this tournament, Maxim scores exceptionally beautiful.

At the 17th minute, Golovachev scored: he robbed the opponent’s goalkeeper when he went on to the next attack, and Karpov could have brought the big score, but he didn’t score with a scoop with a 10-meter free kick. But almost immediately from a similar standard position Karpyuk squeezed the maximum – 4:0. A scoring point in the first half, already with a 6-meter strike put Karpov.

With a five-fold advantage, the second half became a formality for the Russian team. After the break, they both attacked, and there were flashes of emotions, which the arbitrator rated with yellow cards. And at the same time they scored ours. Distinguished Vladislav Golovachev and Denis Titkov – they set the final score – 7:0.

The Russian national team issued the final of the first European Futsal Championship in history for players no older than 19 years old.

The tournament will be held in Riga in September 2019.
