Bad news for Dundee United. Ukrainian goalkeeper Yevhen Kucherenko was out of the game due to a serious injury he received during training. A medical examination confirmed a rupture of the calf muscle, an injury that requires long-term rehabilitation.

According to preliminary estimates, the goalkeeper will miss 4 to 6 weeks, so his return to the field is possible after the New Year.

In the current season, Kucherenko is the main choice of the coaching staff: he played 17 matches in which he conceded 26 goals and kept four clean sheets.

We will remind that the Ukrainian goalkeeper moved to Scotland in the summer of 2025, transferring from Cherkasy LNZ.
