According to Sport.ua, well-known Ukrainian specialist Volodymyr Maziar has agreed to help Karpaty Broshnev-Osada, a multiple winner of the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast Championship, which has not been impressive in the Carpathian region recently.
Since 2014, the team has won the regional championship once and was a runner-up five times, but last season it finished in 10th place out of 12 teams.
Officially, 37-year-old Petro Plishchuk has been the head coach of the Broshnya Karpaty since this year. And recently, 45-year-old Volodymyr Maziar joined the team's training process and, in fact, became a coach-consultant for the green-and-whites. Together with him, six players from Lviv region joined Karpaty.
Maziar's last club was Kazakhstan's Akzhayyk, from which he was dismissed in July last year. During his time as a footballer, the native of Khmelnytskyi region played for such teams as Dynamo-2, Vorskla, Dnipro, Oleksandriya, Tavria, Kryvbas and Zakarpattia.
In the new regional championship, Karpaty Broshnya started with defeats to Uragan Chernivtsi (0:2) and Naftovyk Dolyna (1-3). In the Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast Cup, the team overcame the first barrier in the face of Smoloskyp from Trinity (3:3, 6:5 on penalties).
