Dynamo Kyiv and Ukraine midfielder Oleksandr Karavayev talks about Malinowski's return, Rebrov's work and expectations from the game against the Macedonians for the VZbirna Telegram channel.
Alexander Karavayev- Do you have a feeling that Rebrov is working not only to resolve issues, but is working globally on the style of play?
- It's not like we have only this match and that's it. Of course, there is a task - to reach the European Championship. The next matches are always important for us, we cannot but prepare for them. But we still have an idea. That is, the way we are doing it now, our structure - all this will be improved at each training camp so that everything becomes automatic. New players will come to the national team anyway, so this is also for the future, so that it remains for them.
- Malinowski is back, it's another chance for him...
- It's a normal working moment if you missed one or two training camps because you didn't have practice. If you are a strong footballer, you still get back into the game rhythm. He got a chance again because he had a practice at the club. Everyone is monitored, everyone has a chance.
- Serhii Rebrov attends a lot of matches. Can you feel his immersion in Ukrainian football?
- Of course, it's the right thing to do. You are the head coach, you have all this burden. Of course, you have to be completely immersed in all this football, all the candidates, even those who are not included in the main application - you have to follow them. You have to know all your players, so it's very, very right what he's doing.
- What do you expect from the game in Prague against North Macedonia ?
- I feel that there will be very strong support from both Ukrainian fans and Czechs. I expect only positive results from the game. We will definitely have no problems with the desire, but with the game - let's see what we are told to do on the football field.
