Minaj striker Yehor Tverdokhlib spoke about the current level of the Ukrainian championship.
"If we take the times before the war, then, of course, the level of the championship has slipped: due to the fact that almost all the legionnaires have left. If we look at the beginning of this season, I don't feel any special changes. All the teams have levelled up, which is all the more interesting because everyone can win against anyone.
Which UPL teams were the most difficult to play against? At the moment, I think it's hardest to play against Shakhtar, Dnipro-1 and Zorya. These teams, in my opinion, are looking strong right now. I can also single out Chornomorets, as they started playing in the second round.
As for Dnipro-1, whom we will play in the 26th round, they are a strong, balanced team that tries to play combination football. And it is difficult for all opponents to play against them, because at the moment they are one of the leaders of our championship. Of course, you can't help but like the Pikhalonok-Dovbyk pair. In my opinion, this is Dnipro-1's striking force this season, so we will make a theory on this team and prepare for a real battle," Ukrainian Football quoted Tverdokhlib as saying.
