An improbable score is to be noted during this Rugby weekend. The Ukrainians triumphed against Slovakia with a score of… 135-13.
A little happiness in the hard daily lives of Ukrainians. Traveling to the Slovaks' pitch, in Piešťany precisely, the Yellow and Blue produced a historic match. They signed the biggest score in their history. And hang in there, it's not nothing. They won… 135 to 13! Proof of the difficulty of the Slovaks in this meeting against their opponents, they attempted and succeeded in a penalty while the players from Eastern Europe had already crossed the bar of 90 points scored.
“Thank you to our Armed Forces for the opportunity to represent Ukraine on the European stage. We are worthy to wear blue and yellow colors in every match”wrote the Ukrainian rugby union federation on its social networks. In a factual manner, the Ukrainians presented their next meetings: “More fierce and intriguing duels await us in April 2025 – on April 12 we will play Hungary and on April 26 Austria.”
