The national team cannot rely on one of the defensive players in an important match.
Alexander Timchik will not play against the Italian national team for the qualification for Euro 2024. According to the official website of the UAF, the Dynamo defender missed the match against the England team due to inflammation of the adductor muscle group, and left to the national team as he has no time to recover for the match, which will take place on Tuesday. He will continue his rehabilitation at the Kiev club.
Meanwhile, Nikolai Matvienko, who was replaced at half-time in the match with England (1:1), trained with the general group the day before. The defender feels good and is working with the team.
Let’s remember that the Ukrainian national team has arrived in Milan, where tomorrow, September 12, at the San Siro stadium they will play their match against the Italians. Tonight, head coach Sergei Rebrov and one of the players will meet the media in the arena conference room for a traditional pre-match press conference.
We remind you that earlier it became known that the brother of Alexander Timchik died in the war in Russia.
