The national Under 21 team of Moldova is very optimistic. Ranking second in Group 6 of the qualifying round of the 2015 UEFA European Championship, the team at the start of June will play two games that will be crucial for the qualification for the final, IPN reports.

On June 1, Moldova plays Finland, while on June 5 - Lithuania. “We want only six points. We now do not think about the last match we will play at home against England. My pupils deserve playing in a final,” the team’s coach Alexandru Curteian told a news conference on May 29.

Moldova has 13 points, by 9 fewer than the group’s leader England, but also by one match played fewer. Wales has 10 pints and by one match played more. Finland has 9 points, Lithuania – 7 points, while San Marino – 4 points.

Also today, Curteian made public the lineup for the matches against Finland and Lithuania: Alexei Coshelev, Victor Buga, Cristian Avraam –  goalkeepers; Vasile Jardan, Maxim Focsa, Victor Gheorghiu, Maximilian Modarca, Dinu Graur, Constantin Bogdan, Ivan Prodan – fullbacks; Catalin Carp, Gheorghe Anton, Vadim Rata, Valeriu Tiron, Eugeniu Cociuc, Sergiu Matei, Dan Spataru – halfbacks; Ion Ursu, Iurie Marza, Igor Dima, Nicolae Milinceanu – strikers.
