The Ukrainian team held its first training session before the friendly match against Saudi Arabia.

Defender of the Donetsk Shakhtar and the national team of Ukraine Bogdan Butko gave his comment before the upcoming matches.

"I think the coaching staff will do everything to restore mutual understanding in the team. This is a normal process, that someone leaves the team, and someone comes. There is nothing terrible, we will squeeze the maximum out of the time that we have, "- quotes Butko TV channel Football.

"Official games are different from comrades. However, I think that a professional will always find the motivation in himself and will be maximally tuned to any game, because it will be important for him and for the team. Whoever wants, he will find motivation for sparring - it all depends on each person. I think the team will be maximally collected for all games. All players have a good mood, everyone wants to win ".

"Saudi Arabia? To be honest, before this did not watch the game of this national team. I think this is a technical and speed team. This is a good team, it's not for nothing that she went to the World Cup. Without a doubt, there will be a good game ".

The match against the team of Saudi Arabia will be held on March 23 in Marbella, Spain, and the meeting with Japan will be held on March 27 in Belgian Liege at the stadium Maurice Dufran.
