Atlético Madrid to face Dinamo Kyiv in the Youth League | OneFootball

The Juvenil A team of Atlético de Madrid, managed by Ángel Donato, already knows its opponent in the round of 32 of the UEFA Youth League. Dinamo Kyiv is the opponent drawn for the rojiblancos.

The Ukrainians played in the Champions Path as champions of their youth league and because their first team did not qualify for the UEFA Champions League. In the knockout phase, they eliminated Brommapojkarna from Sweden and Hibernian from Scotland, both in two-legged ties and with very close results.

Atlético de Madrid, despite being defeated in Eindhoven 3-1, had a great group stage with 4 wins (Eintracht Frankfurt, Arsenal, Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, and Inter Milan) and 1 draw (Liverpool). Unfortunately, the rojiblancos were just 1 point away from the top 6, which would have allowed them to play at home against a different and less challenging opponent.

The match will take place on February 3 or 4, with Atleti playing away in a single-leg tie. Due to the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, Dinamo Kyiv has had to play its two home knockout matches in Poland, specifically at the Stal Stalowa Wola Stadium. The official time and venue are yet to be confirmed.
