A famous football player and volunteer recalled an old story that happened to the national team of Ukraine.
Roman Zozulya told why ex-football player and national team coach Andriy Shevchenko offended him. According to the famous striker and volunteer, this happened a long time ago, when Shevchenko led the national team.
Zozulya was called for a match against Croatia, however, in the end, the striker accidentally found out that the mentor did not plan to let him on the field from the very beginning.
After that, the football player shared an angry post against Shevchenko, and he, for his part, began to set everyone in the team against the Roman.
“I arrived and I understood that I have to train and work properly. I trained. The decision is up to the coach whether it is good or bad. On the day of the match, he came and said that he and the coaches decided that I didn’t get into the application. no insults, okay, you’re the head coach. “No offense at all, nothing.
And what happened next – I went to the administrator and asked for my two T-shirts, because the guys from Azov, Dima Komarov, came. They were just sitting in the lobby, drinking coffee with them. And the answer to me: “Roma, but T-shirts are not even prepared for you.” Malinovsky seems to have the 8th number. He said that even before the training camp they already knew that I would sit in the stand.
They write to me that I am hurt that he did not call me to the national team. Who knows me very well as a person … It’s not that he didn’t call me. I gave up on the team myself. See my post, somewhere in 2016-2017. Well, I wrote myself that I refused the national team.
I understand everything, because I am not a little child. I understood that Shevchenko, if he calls me, will put me in the stands. I do not want. I called him on the phone before this post and asked.
That I refused the national team because I had no match training. When it appears – you decide whether to call or not. Everything. He said: “Wow, super, you’re a man, you’re cool, of course, write a post.”
Then he ran to the national team and said to the boys: “Zozulya is so bad, he left us. Did you see what he wrote?” There are many such situations that are not pleasant for me,” Zozuli SportArena quotes.
We will remind, Zozulya previously said that he plans to end his professional football career.
