The central defender of the Ukrainian national team, Valerii Bondar, commented on the draw for the 2026 World Cup playoffs and the possible venues for our national team’s matches.
Valerii Bondar and Serhii Rebrov«I think it’s a normal draw and we have nothing to complain about. We have a skilled team. With such top-level players we have, we must step onto the football field and show our maximum. We must understand that we have 45 million people behind us who care about us deeply.
The country is currently in a very difficult situation. Therefore, in March, we need to achieve the impossible to qualify for the World Cup and delight all the citizens of Ukraine.
Where should the national team play in the playoffs? Even if we play in Poland against Poland, half of the stadium will support us. Many Ukrainians live there. Whenever we play in Poland, there is always great support», Bondar said.
