"Unfortunately, "Kryvbas" became a hostage of the situation when, due to Russian aggression, Ukrainian teams are forced to hold home matches in the international arena abroad. For now it is no longer enough to have practically two equivalent squads, which in rotation would have enough skill for winning performances on two "fronts".
Now it is necessary that the physical condition of the players should be perfect. And with this just and there are problems, given how Krivoy Rog spend a lot of time traveling, which affects the recovery and training process, "- said Tlumak.
