Football. ua talks about the presentation of a new form of the national team, a new coach and an open training session for spectators.

Yesterday, on September 3, the Ukrainian team met for the first time after the World Cup and held the first training before the start of the League of Nations.

Today at the Olympic NSC, anyone could look at the training of the team under the leadership of Andrei Shevchenko and the coaching staff, which included a new specialist.

It was with the presentation of Alexander Shovkovsky at the press conference of Andriy Shevchenko that the "cultural program" of today began. Andrei Nikolaevich immediately announced that Shovkovsky would not be the goalkeeper's coach - he was an assistant to the head coach. His duties will include scouting and hints to the head coach during the training process.

At the end of the press conference, the action was already moved inside the bowl of the Olympic. As we walked along the tunnel, we saw three covered dummies, but there were only "legs" in blue, yellow and white gaiters. Later it became clear that the third set of the form would be white.

Home and exit form will remain the same color as before. The first set is completely yellow with blue inserts, the exit set is blue with yellow inserts, on the same white form there will be gold patterns.

The form was presented by the leaders of the team Evgenie Konoplyanka and Andrei Yarmolenko.

Behind them came two goalkeepers - the current and future of the national team - Andrey Pyatov and Andrei Lunin. Goalkeeper form, it seems, is made according to the pattern, it does not even have an ornament that is present on other sets.

The last came out the newcomer of the team - Roman Yaremchuk, who showed everyone present the first (in the history of the national team) alternative (third) set of the form. Note that the back of the neck on the form says "Glory of Ukraine".

Players took turns telling about the impressions of the new form, praising it, and then the word was taken by Andrey Pavelko and representatives of the technical sponsor of the Joma national team. At the very end, the audience was greeted by a special guest - a soloist of the TIK group - Victor Broniuk.

Players retired from the field, while delighting someone from the fans who came to the stadium with balls that were knocked out to the stands.

Leaving the podtribunnoy premises for training players, greeted and gave gifts to the soldiers of the ATU, who were placed closer to the field.

Some of the players gave interviews. During Yevgeny Seleznev's conversation with journalists, his namesake Linnet passed by, who was also stopped for discussion by media representatives. The linnet did not like that Seleznyov answered too loudly, because of which he pushed his comrade with the words "Can it be quieter?". The answer did not make me wait: "Remove this man! Ham!".

The atmosphere in the team at an excellent level.

Then the guys began to train. Interestingly, the team was immediately divided into defenders and Andrey Pyatov and all the others. With the first worked Andrew Shevchenko, but the attacking line was commanded, including Alexander Shovkovsky.

Interesting distribution of duties of the coaching staff. In one of the moments, Shevchenko and at all "crammed" Denis Boyko.

Rain clouds gathered over the Olympic, but it did not frighten the fans, and many of them waited until the players finished their training and could take pictures with them and take autographs.

Tomorrow early in the morning football players of the Ukrainian team will go to the Czech Republic, where they will play against the local national team.

The match will be held on September 6 at 21:45. The next day the delegation will go to Lviv, where the match against Slovakia will take place. Unfortunately, the match will be held without spectators, but for all comers near the Arena Lions a fan zone will be organized, on which it will be possible to cheer for the national team.
