– And what else did our national team be enough to look more convincing?
– Probably reliability on the flanks of protection. If Katrich on the left was well coped with his work, then Gusev still did not work in defense. I also wanted to see more aggression and confidence from the son of the legendary Andriy Shevchenko – Christian. Shevchenko Jr. worked a lot, but there was not enough imagination.
That the younger Husev that Christian need to watch the matches of their parents, because they took the initiative more, were more aggressive in football. And their children seem to be in the shade. However, it can come over time. I hope for it.
-That is, talking about some backward games with the call of Gusev, Jr. and Christian Shevchenko, proved to be groundless?
– They are definitely not hopeless, both have good potential. These are definitely not players who got into the acquaintance team. Whoever says, but their game proves that these are really football players, not forgive the sons of the legendary parents. And it is unknown if they would go to Chile if the clubs released all the players whom Mikhailenko wanted to see in their team. Junior Gusev and Shevchenko are definitely not “passengers” in this tournament, – Fedorchuk said.
Dmitry Mikhailenko’s wards took the first stage in the group stage of the World Cup 2025. Blue-yellow beat South Korea (2: 1), Paraguay (2: 1) and played a draw with Panama (1: 1).
