Ukraine national team midfielder Oleksandr Zinchenko commented on our national team’s victory in the UEFA Nations League match against Albania.

Against Albania, we achieved what we had planned, which gave us a chance to fight for promotion to League A. We will prepare and give our all for this."
A jersey with the number 1000? This was the initiative of the whole team, as we understand what day it is today. For 1000 days our heroes have defended our state, 1000 days of an unbreakable Ukraine. The feelings are such—I can't describe what is inside me. I can’t even imagine how hard it has been for our people all this time while I am in England. I hope that peaceful skies will come soon. I am proud to be Ukrainian.
I want to convey to all Ukrainians not to give up and to stay united, just as we have throughout this time. I want to dedicate this victory to all Ukrainians who are in Ukraine and not only,” Zinchenko said.
