On Saturday, November 19, the youth national team of Ukraine held the first of two planned control matches in Tbilisi, drawing with the youth team of Israel - 1:1.

By the way, before this game, the Georgians brought in three players from the national team, including midfielder Giorgi Tsitaishvili, a player who belongs to Dynamo Kyiv, and currently plays for Polish Lech on loan.
However, we are more concerned about the personnel situation in the Ukrainian "youth" camp, which, unfortunately, has negative aspects.
Mykola Kuharevich arrived from the Scottish "Hibernian" with an injury. He did not play on Saturday and will not help the team in the second match either.
"Ingulets" midfielder Danylo Kravchuk was injured already during the training session, and "Rukh" defender Vitaly Roman suffered a nose injury in the first half of the match against the Israelis. The examination, fortunately, did not reveal a fracture, but a serious hematoma will prevent the football player from taking part in the second meeting.
We would also like to add that by agreement with the clubs, defender of Czech "Slovan" Maksym Talovyerov and "Chornomorets" midfielder Maksym Bragaru left the team's camp.
Taking into account all the circumstances, the head coach of the youth national team Ruslan Rotan called up two players - Shakhtar midfielder Kyryl Sigheev and Oboloni forward Ihor Krasnopir.
The Georgia-Ukraine match will take place on November 21 in Gora at the Tengiz Burjanadze Stadium. It starts at 18:00 local time (at 16:00 Kyiv time).
