The unpleasant scenes took place right after the League of Nations meeting between Ukraine and Ireland ended. After the last whistle of the judge, a dozen or so fans ran onto the pitch, and the situation began to spin out of control. One of the relatives of fans fired pyrotechnics, and another wanted to take a photo with one of the Ukrainian representatives.
The situation became so nervous that one of the Ukrainian footballers had to step in.
– Unfortunately, after the match, a few fans entered the pitch. They wanted a T-shirt, but they were immediately stopped by the staff, security, police and … Mykolenko himself, who attacked one of the delinquents! – wrote on Twitter Piotr Słonka, known under the nickname “BuckarooBanzai”.
The match played at the ŁKS stadium in Łódź ended with the score 1: 1. Artem Dowbyk scored a goal for the Ukrainian team, while the goal for Ireland was by Nathan Collins.
It was another game played in our country for the representation of our eastern neighbors.

Paweł Raczkowski appeared in Ekstraklasa as a 27-year-old and for twelve seasons he earned the opinion of one of the best Polish judges. It wasn’t easy at first. The players on the pitch tried to take advantage of the fact that he was young and put pressure on him, and the coaches added theirs. He defended himself. In “X-ray”, Raczkowski takes us to the secret world of judges – he talks about the funniest moments of his career, but also those in which you need to shake off your mistake.
