Former Dynamo Kyiv defender Taras Mykhalyk told us what he expects from the Ukrainian national team's performance at Euro 2024.
"We are all waiting for a good performance in Germany. Now the national team is being criticized after the Poles. But I think everything is right. He is watching and giving everyone a chance to show themselves. In the match against Moldova, he will probably play the squad for the Euro (the conversation took place before this meeting - ed.) This is my subjective opinion.
Perhaps it's good that everything happened this way. Otherwise, the team was almost listed as a Euro winner. Like, we have such a super team, everyone plays abroad. Other national teams also have strong players.
I think we have a good team and coach. The team shows good football. People criticize that something didn't work out with the Poles, and we were sitting in defense against the Germans. Let's wait for the Euro and then we will draw some conclusions. In terms of potential, players and coaching staff, we have quite a lot of power. So I would not sprinkle ashes on my head right now.
That's why we need friendly matches, to watch and play something. To give a chance to prove themselves to players who play less. That's why I don't see anything wrong with it," Tribuna quoted Mykhailyk as saying.
я вот тоже так подумал, но молчал :)
а спортивные психологи все правильно игрокам объяснили... действительно нужно оценивать себя адекватно и нам, как болельщикам, в том числе
