National teams of Ukraine and Slovakia held a friendly match, in which the strong-willed victory was won by Ukrainians.

"Atmosphere at the stadium in Lviv was beautiful. But everything would be fine if they played well. We received a gift at the beginning of the match (the error of Andrey Pyatov,. ), but missed it, "- said Kozak at the post-match press conference.

"As part of our team there were a lot of young players, but they did not always withstand the tempo and pressure from the stands".

"This team of Ukraine is probably stronger than the one against which we played in the selection for Euro 2016. Your team still had a strong line-up plus good young performers, "added Kozak.

Recall that the teams of Ukraine and Slovakia met twice as part of the selection for Euro-2016, then at home our team minimally lost, and on the road played a goalless draw, taking third place in the group.
