Ukraine’s head coach Andriy Shevchenko summarized the results within the fifth round of the League of Nations.
“If you take the whole situation we got into … The team did not play a single game with the main squad, except Switzerland. We entered the game very well, apart from the first 5-7 minutes. Overall, we tried to play Our football, moments It worked well. We played against an organized team with very fast players on the flanks. They rebuilt the game a bit, it was more difficult for us.
I think the guys were close to a draw, because if we converted the chances, we would have won it. The main thing is that we play according to the correct structure, we create chances, the team has a drawing. It’s a crazy experience for us to play with teams like this at this level. We gave a lot of players a chance, they showed themselves well.
The fact that we were missing four players affected us a lot. The game plan is based not only on the main team, but also on the replacement players. They strengthened the game and today we did not have that, because in many positions there were not enough players. We will have a very tough game in Switzerland, we will fight.
Challenge new players? Now it is very difficult to find staff. If there are no injuries, we will remain in this lineup. Tomorrow a plane will fly from Kiev to pick up the infected players who will not fly with us to Switzerland. We practically did not know if the game would pass and what would happen to the sick players. We have time until the morning plane. If we need to add new players, we will have to find and call them, “said the coach of the Ukrainian team.
