Igor Tsyganik: "The most important thing for Ukraine is to build team spirit"

Famous commentator Igor Tsyganik has made a forecast for the Nations League match between the Ukrainian national team and the Georgian team.

- The Ukrainian national team will play its match in the Nations League against Georgia. I think this is actually the time of truth for our national team. We need a victory - we all understand this very well. Despite what is happening in the Ukrainian national team, despite the level of play shown by the Georgian team, I still believe that the Ukrainian team is the favorite in this match. We have a lot of personnel losses, but the level of players currently in the Ukrainian national team is significantly higher than that of each individual player in the Georgian national team.

Yes, Georgia plays very well as a team. They have bright performers who are known in Europe: Mikautadze, Kvaratskhelia, Mamardashvili, Chpkvetadze and others. They look good enough on the football field. But again, I am sure that our players are not weaker.

I think the most important thing for Ukrainian players now is to believe that they can win. And the most important thing is to build team spirit. We traditionally have a problem with such teamwork on the football field. Now Serhiy Rebrov needs to explain to the players that what they do in the game must be done 10 times more and better than before.

If the players really manage to get into a team spirit, then I believe that there will be no problems in the confrontation against Georgia. I believe that the Ukrainian national team will score more than 1.5 goals, I will also bet on Artem Dovbyk's goal, I will bet that the Ukrainian national team will not concede against the Georgians in this match," Tsyganik said.
