Former midfielder of Kyiv's Dynamo and the Ukraine national team Vasiliy Kardash spoke about which opponent the Ukrainian national team would have the best chances against in the Nations League playoffs for the right to move to Division "A" of the tournament. Let us remind you that the opponent of the "blue and yellow" in these playoff matches will be one of four teams: Belgium, Scotland, Serbia, Hungary.
Vasiliy Kardash— Each of the potential opponents of the Ukrainians has their strengths and weaknesses, although at this level, there are no weak opponents anymore.
In my opinion, it would be good if the draw selected the Scotland national team as the opponent for the Ukrainians, at least in terms of tactics, they are quite predictable. Their "trumps" are resilience, high tempo, and home preparations for set pieces. If we take control of the ball, quickly counterattack, actively use the flanks, and vertical passes, there is a chance to tip the scales in our favor.
After all, in my opinion, among the potential opponents of Ukraine, there is no favorite; we can play and win against each of them. Of course, provided that we manage to realize all our "trumps," — said Kardash.
Let us remind you that the draw for the Nations League playoffs will take place today, November 22.
