Andriy Shevchenko is pleased with the quality of the game of the Ukrainian team in a match with Turkey.

Head coach of the national team of Ukraine Andrei Shevchenko commented on a draw in the match with Turkey (0: 0).

"The youth was baptized today. I am very happy, especially in the first half - it was great. In the second half, maybe the field played its role, as the lawn was of the wrong quality: there were more mistakes. Plus Turkey played at home and mobilized somewhere. I am pleased with all the debutants who came out. I am pleased with the team. The only thing - not enough goals scored ".

"Today the main thing is not the result, but the quality of the game that the Ukrainian team tried to show. We had 7 or 8 players from U-21, who recently played for the youth team. We understand the motivation of the Turks, despite the fact that this is a friendly match. Turks at home play very aggressively, plus full stands. The guys coped with the task ".

"I liked the ball control. I liked the ideas that our players tried to transfer to the pitch, the quality of gear. Lacked completion. There were errors that prevented the completion of attacks. Overall very good.

"Pressing in the first half? Youth has strength, they need to be used.

They do not even need to start, they are already charged ".

"I think the year is very good. I do not take the result of performance in the League of Nations. We raised the level of the game, introduced a lot of young players. These two last games gave a chance to make experiments.. Hope the leading players will recover. I wish Marlos and Yarmolenko more likely to return to service. We are waiting for them ", - Shevchenko summed up in the comments to the TV channel Football.
