Defender of English club Everton and the Ukrainian national team Vitaliy Mykolenko spoke about the strengths of the Icelandic team before tomorrow’s World Cup 2026 qualifying match.
Vitaliy Mykolenko“We analyzed the recent matches of the Icelandic national team. They play very well during set pieces, both in attack and defense. Therefore, we paid more attention to these aspects. Overall, I believe that the Iceland national team has improved compared to our previous matches against this team. In particular, they now play more with the ball.
Is there pressure due to the need to win? When you play at this level, for your country, there is always pressure. It doesn’t matter if it’s a friendly match or an official one. And we have probably already adapted to it,” said Mykolenko during the pre-match press conference.
