Otar Kakabadze: "The bad condition of the pitch influenced us more than the Ukraine national team"

Defender of the national team of Georgia Otar Kakabadze commented on the defeat of his team from the national team of Ukraine (0:1) in yesterday's match of the 3rd round of the Nations League.

"A very offensive defeat. Of course, we knew that the Ukraine national team has a very good team, but I can not say that it outplayed us. The fate of the match was decided by one mistake of ours. We had opportunities to take the opponent's goal, but, unfortunately, we could not take advantage of them.

In every match we strive to win, but we know that not in every game we can achieve it. Therefore, we need to forget this defeat and focus on preparation for the next match. Especially since we are still in first place in the group. It is important to show a good game in the home match against Albania. Meanwhile, we apologize to the Georgian fans for not being able to please them today. We always feel their support.

Bad condition of the pitch? We will not justify it, because we made too many mistakes in the game. But such a lawn affected us more than the opponent," europop.ge quoted Kakabadze as saying.
