Famous Ukrainian commentator Viktor Vatsko shared his impressions of the game of Ukraine's midfielder Ivan Kalyuzhny in the Nations League match against Georgia (1-0).
Viktor Vatsko"If a year ago someone had told you that Kalyuzhny would play for the national team, most of you would have asked who it was. Two years ago, the man played in India at Kerala Blasters, and a year ago he was not needed by Oleksandriya and was loaned to LNZ. His progress under Rotan's guidance is simply amazing.
I really liked Kalyuzhny. He was not psychologically confused. Ivan played simply, strictly positional, nothing extra. He took it away and gave it to his neighbor. He insured me where it was necessary to foul. Everything was simple, but reliable. This simplicity and reliability was the main strength of Kalyuzhnyi, who gave strength to the team game.
Who would have expected such a level of football in the debut match for the national team from the first ever Oleksandriya player in the national team? Therefore, applauding Kalyuzhny for the game, I call him my "Lion of the Match" against Georgia," Vatsko said in the Vatsko Live program.
