Vinotinto Women's Futsal will take on Ukraine this Wednesday, November 11, in the grand final of the 2026 Youth Olympic Games.

The Venezuelan quintet comes to the event after an epic 3-2 defeat against Iran, while the European teams sealed their ticket by beating the Italian team 3-1.

The fight for the gold medal will have a special revenge condiment. Both teams faced each other in the opening game of the group stage in Dakar, where the Ukrainian national team won very tightly with a score of 5-4 in overtime.

On that occasion, the goals of the national side came through a double by Nelmari Aguilar, and others signed by Victoria Colmenárez and Alexa Velásquez.

Coach Mike Guerra recalled that in the first match against Ukraine, the national team played a balanced match that they did not deserve to lose.

“They canceled a goal that was valid for me and we were able to win that game. We already know that Ukraine is a strong team, but these players have a lot of courage and heart and we will come out with all our options to win that gold that would be of great projection for women's futsal in Venezuela,” said the coach.
