In the last training matches at the training camp before the start of the football season, the players of the national team of Ukraine from domestic clubs showed their scoring skills.

10 days before the face-to-face match in the Super Cup of Ukraine, Shakhtar Donetsk and Dynamo Kyiv will reach the finish line in preparation for the new season.

Donetsk at the training camp in Austria after the victory over "Austria" again issued a goal match, on July 9, defeating the representative of the Dutch championship - "Vitesse". Paulo Fonseca's team sent four goals to the Dutch, three of which were scored by the players of the national team of Ukraine (Butka, Stepanenko and Kovalenko). Especially impressive were the goals of Stepanenko (head in the fall) and Butka, who twisted the ball into the net with a long shot. It should be noted that before the meeting with Dynamo in the Super Cup in Odessa, the Pitmen have only one sparring left to play - on July 12 against Turkish Besiktas.

Representatives of the Ukrainian national team from Dynamo Kyiv also get sufficient playing practice at the training camp. Kyiv played two control matches in two days (July 8 and 9) - first against the Swiss "Lucerne" (1: 1), and then against the Romanian club "Botosani" (0: 0). In the meeting with the Swiss, the forward of the national team of Ukraine Artem Besedin scored a beautiful goal from a long distance under the crossbar. It should be noted that in the second game Oleksandr Khatskevych released more young people, including Oleksandr Andrievsky, who spent last season at Zora, Mykola Shaparenko, as well as experienced Mykola Morozyuk and Serhiy Sydorchuk.

Also in the past days control matches at the training camp were played by Vorskla (lost - 0: 2 to Slovenian "Celje"), "Olympic" (2: 2 with "Girnyk-Sport"), "Chornomorets" (victory - 1: 0 over " Real Pharma), Karpaty (victory - 3: 2 over Polish Zaglebie), Zorya (beat Chukarychky from Serbia - 3: 0) and FC Lviv (beat IFC Mykolaiv - 2: 0).
