Victor Leonenko: "We are outside the maternity hospital and we give birth together with the women"

Former forward Viktor Leonenko commented on Ukraine's disappointing victory over Malta.

- What can I say? There were two penalties. But I want to talk about something else. Why we have so few chances. Because we make so many mistakes in simple situations. We start an attack and then finish it ourselves - or give it to the opponent, or just lose. You see it yourself. That`s why we have such tough matches, and we`ll have them with everyone, believe me. We are, as I say, near a maternity hospital, and together with the women we give birth to these victories.

Yarmolenko did not score a penalty. Well, you know, he did not score. This is a lottery, as everyone likes to say. That`s just why did he go to shoot? Probably, he wanted, as always, to beat someone, records again. Everyone thinks of records. Congratulations to Tsygankov. I think he`s the best player. Well, congratulations to all on the victory. Well done, you`ve gained another three points. And then you`ll understand it. Sad, - said Viktor Evgenievich on Telegram.
