The head coach of the Ukrainian national football team commented on the draw against the League of Nations group.
Many are still sick and injured on the national team, so the selection of players for the match against Ireland is limited. This was announced at the post-match press conference of the head coach of the Ukrainian national team Oleksandr Petrakov. In addition, the instructor expressed his frustration with the goal received in the fight. After all, it was scored by the visitors defender, who passed from the middle of the field.
“Why did I only make three substitutions? Our boys still got sick. In that game, it’s hard to come in as a substitute. This is my decision as head coach.
Tsygankov played four games. I didn’t put it on, because the most important thing for me was to keep men healthy. A game that is very hard to enter in return.
Disappointed to have missed it. The opposing team’s defender came from the middle of the field and scored. But I never studied such moments after the game. You need to sleep and endure your vision with a fresh head.
I can no longer discuss the continuation of the championship. This should be done by the presidents of the club, the Premier League. We have very good specialists who must weigh everything. I think they will make a good decision.
Malinovsky had no serious injuries, soft tissues, a clogged hip joint. There is nothing wrong with Nikolai Matvienko either, I think it takes five days to recover. They will all go on vacation with their families, they will rest, so that everyone will be healthy.
Now there is no new name on the team. So many people have already debuted. I thought you would say, on the contrary, that there are already enough debutants.
You understand, now we don’t have an English embassy, so you need to apply for visas for Scotland in Warsaw. Tomorrow one group will leave to apply for a visa at 7:30, the second – at 9:30. Everything is difficult. We don’t know when the championship will start, but on September 21 there will be a game in Scotland. We will need to get to Poland by bus, fly to Glasgow, after which on the 24th there will be a game in Yerevan, then on the 27th-a match against Poland. I want to thank Lodz, it has been a special city in my life. Thanks to Poland for accepting, for helping. Maybe we’ll meet again, “Petrakov said on the UAF’s official website.
