There are only four astronomical days between the matches of Ukraine national team against Belarus and Kazakhstan at the start of WC-2010 qualifying round. So, immediately after the end of the match in Lviv blue-yellow went to Kyiv were they began preparing for the next game at Dynamo Kyiv base. Instead of intensive schedule Oleksiy Mykhailychenko found time to give a flesh-interview to FFU inform-service.
− We have already analyzed the match against Belarus, − the coach of Ukrainians mentioned. − But on the whole there is nothing to add to the words that I’ve already told at after match press-conference. We spoke seriously with all footballers, made necessary conclusions and now we are getting ready for the game with Kazakhstan.
− Denys Golaido and Artem Milevskiy are also preparing with the team?
− Golaido is already working in the main group. As to Artem, his injury is not too serious. At least now we expect him to appear in the match at Almay Central Stadium.
− Will the first squad of the team be the same as it was in Lviv or not?
Of course, there will be changes. We don’t know yet which one’s because you understand that two days can bring a lot of surprises. But be sure there will be necessary correctives in the squad.
− Usually Ukrainian footballers come to the place where they have to play in a term of two days before the match and have the opportunity to train directly on the stadium. This time blue-yellow will arrive approximately at midnight according to local time. What is the reason of it?
− I personally don’t suppose it to be so important thing. We did’t train on Ukraine Stadium in Lviv before the matches with Poland and Belarus, so we decided to do it like we did before. It is also good that the match starts at 19:00 according to Kyiv time and the organisms of our footballers won’t have to become acclimatized. We go to Kazakhstan to win and we don’t think about any other variants.
