Serhii Rebrov's men continue to prepare for the March matches. Volodymyr Brazhko, a newcomer to the Ukrainian national team, shared his impressions of the training process.

"The acclimatisation is going well, the guys support me. There was a two-sided game, which adds a little understanding. Compared to the youth national team, the style is the same and the scheme is the same, but everything is much faster, everyone works much better with the ball. Of course, it's harder, but you have to get used to this level, to be worthy of representing the country at it.

Of course, we were tired after the two-sided game, because we played three halves of 25 minutes each, a lot of intensity. We had a day of recovery, and tomorrow is the same. I hope I will recover well and feel good. Who was the most difficult opponent to play against? Against everyone!

I haven't analysed the Bosnians yet. All the guys will arrive and we will analyse them. The opponents have a good team, but we need to look at ourselves, not them, to show our game, our style," said Vladimir Brazhko.

It will be recalled that the semi-final play-off match of the Euro 2024 qualifiers Bosnia and Herzegovina - Ukraine will take place on 21 March in Zenica and will start at 20:45 local time (21:45 Kyiv time).
