Oleksandr Kucher: "I think that Tsitaishvili still has a grudge against Ukraine"

Former Shakhtar defender Oleksandr Kucher is convinced that Giorgi Tsitaishvili would not be useful to the Ukrainian national team, but he will undoubtedly pose a threat to their goal in the match against the Blue and Yellows.

- In the match against Ukraine, Tsitaishvili will be very motivated, no doubt, like any player who plays for the national team. Footballers have such a trait that, for example, if they played in Ukraine, they will give 100% in the match against Ukraine. Gio will come out very charged, will pose a threat and will want to score against our national team, so, of course, he needs to be given attention, just like every Georgian player.

Is he offended by Ukraine? You have to ask him, but I think he still has a grudge. The man was waiting for a call-up to the Ukrainian national team, he wanted to play, but it didn't happen, so Giorgi decided to play for Georgia. But the main team of our country would not need Tsitaishvili, we have Nazarenko and Hutsulyak. There are many players in Ukraine who can adequately represent our national team," the expert noted.
