"The support for our players was felt everywhere. Yesterday I felt this rise in the fan zone in Khreshchyatyk and at the stadium. I am sure that this considerably helped the national team players to win in a challenging but fair fight. The team has shown a high class game, and I, like every citizen of Ukraine, am proud of this victory of our country," Azarov said.
