Former player of the national team of Ukraine Andriy Polunin shared with Team 1 expectations from today's confrontation with Scotland.
— Of course, it is worrying that the Ukrainian national team approached this match with serious personnel losses, and it is also worrying that the players of the base team, Dynamo Kyiv, are currently not in the best sports shape. On the other hand, the head coach Oleksandr Petrakov has a lot to choose from, and I hope that those who are ready to show everything they are capable of will take the field today.
When you take into account that the last match between these national teams, in the selection for the World Cup in Qatar, ended in favor of our boys, then the psychological advantage will be on their side. This is a strong argument. It is also important to set up properly and not concede to the hosts in the power rivalry, because the Scots will try to be tough. I think that the national team of Ukraine will play for victory, but even a draw will be acceptable for it, the expert said.
