“There are two equal squads in the Ukrainian team”

Metalist Head Coach 1925 Valery Kryventsov shared his thoughts on the state of the Ukraine national team before the Nations League fights.

“If there is a problem (after all, not playing together for a year is a long time), it can be fixed. It is important that the players are in good physical shape. One week of joint training will be enough for Andrey Shevchenko and his coaching staff to bring the team to a common denominator. The boys missed each other, so the emotional background should be on a good level.

The backbone that achieved success in the Euro 2020 qualifying round must be maintained, although the Ukrainian team has almost two equal squads. Therefore, it is not necessary to speak of experiments. Yes, there are newcomers, but if there are substitutions in one, two or three positions, I don’t think it is some kind of experiment. Someone has improved in the last year and someone may have gone through a bit. I think Andrei Nikolaevich will solve this problem, ”Kryventsov said.

In the framework of the League of Nations, the Ukrainian team will play with Switzerland on September 3, and with Spain on September 6.
