Sports doctor Dmytro Babeleuk, known for his work with Lviv’s “Rukh,” commented on the injury situation in the Ukrainian national team.

Explain to me what is happening with the communication between the national team and the clubs, as yet again a player who is injured is included in the squad and leaves the camp early? Yes, this is typical practice (Reece James left the England national team camp due to an injury that was not diagnosed in time), but not so regularly.
If James’s case can be understood, then what was the medical staff of 'Dynamo' doing for half a week? Tymchyk may have sustained an injury in the match against 'Crystal Palace,' nothing is done about it, hoping it will pass. He is included in the match list for the weekend, which he successfully sits out. Then Sasha goes to the national team, the problem does not disappear anywhere, and he likely undergoes examinations abroad and finds out that there is indeed an injury that will prevent him from playing for the national team. Curtain.
These 'injuries' week after week — they start to directly affect the results. For the club, and potentially, the national team,” Babeleuk wrote in his Telegram channel.
