Yevhen Konoplyanka answered the questions of journalists on the eve of the open training session of the Ukrainian team.

"Match with Slovakia? We need to win. Despite the fact that this game is unimportant from a tournament point of view, I do not want to lose. I am not used to losing, after the defeat there is no mood. So we always try to play to win. We have a lot of young players, we need to play, because there was a monthly pause, then there will be an even longer break. We must not forget our games and only improve them. ".

"To advise young players? I do not want to advise anything, because I myself am still a player.

Have you pushed me into the coaching staff? Do not hurry. We were with the Swede in Seville. I know what kind of player he is and what he is capable of. See what he shows in the championship of Ukraine. Why do I need something else to advise him ", - sure Linnet.

On Friday, November 16, the Ukrainian team will play an away match against Slovakia in the framework of the League of Nations. November 20, the "blue-yellow" will play in the control sparring with Turkey.
