The head coach of Kyiv’s «Obolon», Oleksandr Antonenko, emphasized the importance of the fact that only Ukrainian footballers play in his team.
Oleksandr Antonenko«We are truly very proud that only Ukrainians play in our team. This is important. Right now, perhaps „Kudrivka“ and „Poltava“ are going down the same path.
I think such teams should at least be respected. Because there is a war in the country now. And who can correct this, stand up for their truth? Only Ukrainians.
That is why we are very proud of this. Our players, especially the young ones, improve from game to game. We are building a team that can... not just a team, but players who can assert themselves. The team will assert itself, and we are raising specifically Ukrainian footballers. And this is probably the most important thing for us,» — said Antonenko.
