Ukrainian defender Oleksandr Nasonov shared his thoughts on why the long-time leader of Kyiv’s “Dynamo” Vitaliy Buyalsky failed to establish himself in the national teams.
“A special approach is needed for Buyalsky. He is a modest guy. Maybe, if the coach trusted him in the national team, he would have revealed himself. In “Dynamo” he is the captain and justifies this title.
Buyalsky is a year younger than me. I remember when he first came to the national team. I had never seen him before, and he came on as a substitute against the Czechs — he beat one and assisted another. I thought, “What a little freak!”. It was immediately clear his technique and his ability to make a delicate pass. He knows how to do it,” — Nasonov quotes “Ukrainian Football”.
