There are no official matches during the June cycle, but the cycle itself is in the schedule, so I had to look for opponents somewhere. And if the national team of Ukraine really wants to play at the 2026 World Cup next summer, then a similar training with a long flight, changing time zones, acclimatization and in general another rhythm of life-this is exactly the best for the team of Sergei Rebrov.

But the fact that at the Canadian Shield in the semi -state tournament, we are actually one of the dishes on the table of the Jesse Marsh team, who starts on the Golden Cup of Concacaf in a few days is the other side of the medal. Disappointing for us. And from this it follows such a result of the meeting – someone has already thought on vacation, and someone to play for more serious trophies.

And here it is worth mentioning the experience of the Olympic national team of Ukraine, which, led by Ruslan Rotan, went to Japan last year, who had the same mood in front of Asia, and showed such football against the U-23 team, which was left behind (0: 2). So for those who saw that game in the performance of “blue and yellow”, the fiasco in Toronto did not bring anything new in terms of impressions.

According to the results of the voting with the support of the national sponsor of the national team of Ukraine, the brand “Lviv”, the “Lev match” prize in the game against Belgium received the defender of “blue and yellow” Elijah Zabar. All the protection of the Rebrov team was mistaken, and the representative of the English Bournemouth did not exclude in this regard, but in the Zabarny game there were at least some attempts to improve the situation of our team. Far shows especially, although in the episode with Golom at the end of the match, Elijah was well “milked” the moment before another gate.

Football.ua evaluates the game of Ukrainian national team players in a match at the BMO Field stadium (on a 10-point scale).

Ukraine

Anatoly Trubin – 5.5. No seava was calculated by the statistics of our goalkeeper for the match, but three missed balls were still. Was Trubin’s direct guilt in these episodes? If we consider the lack of rescue of the gate in episodes actually face to face with rivals the basis for such judgments, then-yes. But when the protection is resting, what to ask from the goalkeeper. Moreover, Trubin, probably, would like to find a little consolation in the ranks of the national team after the same uncertain game of defense of Benphyry during the season. And here it turned out that the “blue-yellow” fly not higher than the “eagles” in this regard.

Alexander Tymchik – 6.0. Through our right defense flank, the rivals began to attack only when Nelson appeared on the field, while the Shaffelburg did not surprise anything before the Shaffelburg, and he simply did not have to contrast Timchik in terms of speed or in terms of choice. But with Nelson, yes, I had to look at the opponent in the back in most cases.

Ilya Zabarn (6.5) – Valery Bondar (3,5) – 4.0. Rebrov chose such a pair of central defenders, and it was quite his right. And if the retardation was somehow the actions to build an attack tried to improve the impression of his own game, then the Bondar, not only did it not be celebrated, but also frankly brought one of the balls in the first half in his own gate.

Mykola Matvienko – 3.0. Matvienko was instructed to play on the left flank of defense, which after the season, in which he spent almost more for all matches in the club as a captain of Shakhtar, seemed to be open. There was Buchenen opposite, and simply destroyed Nicholas without any chances for the latter. The best player in Canada, so his opponent should be the worst of us – the rigid logic of football.

Alexander Zinchenko – 6.0. Usually, if they talk about some sports anger there, then it is, yes, Alexander Zinchenko should be addressed. This time, too, our station wagon woke up, but a little too late, and although he created a penalty actually on his own, it would be much better if that moment with a tipping in the first half would end with a scored ball. The game would probably be spread in a more favorable direction for us. But it’s not for sure.

Ivan Kalyuzhny – 5.0. Super-Ivan is famous for his ability to fight, but this time it was clearly not his game. Neither force confrontation, nor the corporate first gears into the front line from the puddle had to be seen.

Mykola Shaparenko – 5,0. Rebrov put a bet in the center of the field on Shaparenko, which under the veil of the season in Dynamo also had some problems in game conditioning, and the match against Canada was generally completed with damage, so probably, the campaign for Nicholas was finally finished. But what is the work of this game? A lot of lost struggle and only a single attempt is not too striking.

Victor Tsigankov – 4,5. Our right winger also frankly did not impress the approaches to creating a threat to another’s gate, and none of Tsigankov’s films from the flank found their address in a “blue and yellow” T-shirt. At the same time, the number of losses of the ball is just crazy, as for the game of our team this time – 23. The gears of the precise, for example, Victor made only 22.

Roman Yaremchuk – 5,0. Olympiakos striker caught a productive wave at the end of the club season, and probably the coaching staff of the national team hoped that Yaremchuk would pull the national team on her rowing. Did not pull out. Although he constantly tried to find the ball in another’s penalty area and even had several moments at the gate.

Georgy Sudakov – 5.0. Sudakov again quit to close the left flank of the attack in the national team. For what purpose? It is not clear, as during previous attempts. To narrow the potential of the performers of this level at the edge of the attack, even after the end of the club season is a waste, and it is strange that with the conditional Hutsulak, Zubkov and Kabaev on the bench, our coaching staff did not invent anything more interesting. And in George, as a personal account was an unfulfilled moment from Zinchenko’s submission at the beginning of the match, he remained.

Oleksandr Pihalokonok – 5.5. To construct something in the game at the expense of 0: 3 is a kind of pleasure, so when the pendant was not able to exacerbate with branded gears from depth, no one was especially surprised.

Dmitry Raznik – 5.5. Trubin missed three times until he played a third of the game time, his successor in the miner – missed another goal. At the same time he wrote to his own account one save, but could also miss if Nelson not only had our defense, but was also more successful to end the attacks.

Alexei Gutsulyak – 6.5. However, we did not play in hockey and not in football MLS, so the assistant for a blow to the head that pulled the goalkeeper of the opponents, the Hutsulak will not be written into the account. However, the appearance on the field of Alexei can still be considered successful. Of course, in the context of the general failure.

Alexander Zubkov – 6.0. In Turkey, Zubkov started performances very successfully, so it is not surprising that he received his call to the ranks of the national team. And a little gaming time at the end of the general It is not surprising for us to meet us. And although it did not reach Zubkov’s danger to the foreign gate, but several times he clung to the ball on the flank.

Mykola Mikhailenko – 6.5. The nominally reference midfielder made a meeting not with the task of defending his own gates, and in the end the movement of Mikhailenko near another penalty ended with a branch from Hutsulak from the rebound from the impact of which he scored Zabar. Also the story of the starting composition for New Zealand.

Vladislav Kabaev – The last replacement in this game was also more preparation for the second game, and Kabayev even managed to find a moment to strike in the field.
