Famous commentator Igor Tsyganik expressed his opinion on who could replace midfielder Taras Stepanenko in the Ukrainian national team.
Igor Tsyganik"We lost the middle of the pitch to the Maltese in the last match, and there were problems the day before that. We lost the middle of the field to the Macedonians. To be honest, the main problem of the Ukrainian national team is that the team loses the middle of the field. At his age, Stepanenko remains the best player in this area. And this is a certain problem. Apart from him, no one takes the ball away.
Who is there instead? Brazhko. He looks very good at Dynamo. He played very well against Rukh. He is a good footballer. Why aren't we looking at him? Rubchynskyi. For a year and a half, the man has been playing without changes, without failures. Both are in the youth team. So maybe they should be put in the first team? In fact, Sudakov and Mudryk can still play in the youth team. I think we need to expand this list of players," Tsyganik said on Tsyganik Live.
