“We fell out at the beginning of the second half. There were a lot of standards for about 10 minutes, we couldn’t get out of our first zone. The opposing team created pressure at the expense of standards.
I believe that maybe we should have made substitutions a little earlier – both Oleksii Hutsuliak and Yaremchuk were suggested to be replaced, because we saw serves, passes, but we didn’t have large players who could impose a fight. And, probably, these substitutions had to be made a little earlier, because we already saw that Malinovsky was tired, and other players in the middle of the field, as well as Yarmolyuk.
It was necessary to take risks and saturate the penalty area with larger players, because it was necessary to impose a fight”
Earlier, the first captain in the history of the Ukrainian national team, Yuriy Shelepnytskyi, shared his thoughts on the victory of the “blue and yellow” over Iceland (2:0).
