Ukraine's goalkeeper Dmytro Riznyk commented on the national team's preparations for the Euro 2024 qualifying match against Italy.
Dmytro Riznyk"Today we practised on a slightly slippery pitch, we hit a few shots, but all this is what we need to practice our shots. As a goalkeeper, I will say that our players who delivered them are all fully prepared. They performed masterfully. Who was it in particular? I won't say, because there were a lot of shots, and I didn't pay attention to it.
Now we have a lot of tactical training, we are working on many details. I won't reveal any secrets, but I hope they will work in the match. Intensive work continues, the guys are giving their best. Everyone communicates with each other, gives each other suggestions. It makes it easier to prepare, and many say that this is half the battle. If it's hard on the pitch and you have someone to help you, it gets better.
Many of the guys have come from Europe, where they have recently scored goals, so they are in a good mood before a crucial game. As for the Italian national team, if you look at its squad, everyone is a star player. They constantly perform at the top level. They are a very strong team, and we need to be well prepared for them.
The competition in the national team's goalkeeping department is at a high level. But I believe that it should be so. This is a healthy phenomenon. And, of course, the coach will decide everything," said Dmytro Riznyk.
