Former Ukraine national team striker Ivan Hetsko shared his prediction for the 2026 World Cup qualifying match against France.
— I really hope that the head coach of our national team, Serhiy Rebrov, will ensure that the team has enough strength for the second and decisive match of this pair against Iceland, otherwise the fans are unlikely to understand. As for the match against France, under no circumstances do I want to end up with mud on our face. I don’t think the French will push hard, they are basically fine with a draw. I’m betting on a 1:1 draw, — said Hetsko.
