Turkey U17 claimed a 2-0 victory in a friendly against Ukraine U17 on 29 September 2026. The result gives the visitors a clean sheet on their travels, something they have not managed in their last competitive outing against Scotland U17. Ukraine, who had put four past Albania U17 in their most recent appearance, were unable to find an equaliser.
The hosts have been inconsistent of late. They started this calendar year with wins over North Macedonia U17, both 1-0 and 2-1, but those results have not been repeated. Since then Ukraine have drawn once against Croatia U17 and lost three times, including heavy defeats to Spain U17 on two occasions.
Turkey U17 came into this fixture with mixed fortunes. They drew 0-0 with Spain U17 in their last outing but had won four previous games, including a 4-0 demolition of Northern Ireland U17. The away win adds to their record of results against lower-ranked opposition.
Ukraine now sit without a victory in their last three matches. The defeat means they will need to regroup before their next competitive fixture. Turkey U17 can take confidence from the clean sheet and the fact they held their shape against a side that had just scored four goals.
