BUCHAREST: North Macedonia only showed what they are capable of in the second half of their 2-1 Euro 2020 Group C defeat by Ukraine on Thursday but can take a lot of positives from the performance, coach Igor Angelovski said.
"We were poor in the first half although our captain Goran Pandev was unlucky to be marginally offside and have a goal scrapped," Angelovski told a news conference. "This is how we should play against the Dutch. We want to put on a good show and hopefully pick up our first points of the tournament."Pandev was unhappy with the team's lapses in concentration which allowed forwards Andriy Yarmolenko and Roman Yaremchuk to fire Ukraine into a 2-0 lead in the space of five minutes.
