Frost training and annoying Kravts injury: the latest news from the national team camp
The snowfall in the capital, which today caused a number of events equated to a natural disaster, also interfered with the schedule of the national team of Ukraine.
Due to bad weather, the training, which was previously scheduled for the 12th, the coaching staff was forced to move to the 17th. But in the afternoon the snow stopped falling, and the staff of the NSC "Olympic" with the help of student volunteers of the National University of Physical Education and Sports of Ukraine cleared the lawn of a thick layer of "white miracle".

So the training took place on the field of the usual green color, and the red balls, prepared by the administrators just in case, were not needed.
Visit of "Captain" Rotan
A pleasant surprise for the blue-yellows was the visit to the evening training of one of the three "hundreds" of the national team Ruslan Rotan, who played his 100th match for the national team in the spring of this year, and ends 2018 as a coach. Those guys who, side by side with Ruslan, defended the colors of the main team of the country, warmly embraced him - including head coach Andriy Shevchenko.

Rotan came to support his recent partners before difficult away matches and at the same time to observe the training process, which is very valuable for his new job.
Dynamics in the cold
At a temperature of -2 ° C training was at a high pace - no one wanted to freeze. After all, even with the heating on, standing still was very cold. After completing the tasks set by the coaches and returning to the hotel, the guys had a delicious dinner and went to rest.

Trauma of the Tailor
The trouble of the day was the information that defender Vasyl Kravets will not be able to help the team in the upcoming matches. Yesterday, during an open training session, Vasyl made a sharp movement and received a lumbar nerve entrapment. According to the chief physician of the national team of Ukraine Artur Glushchenko, such an injury will cause a lack of physical activity of the player for 7-10 days. Then Kravets returns to the location of his club, where he will undergo a rehabilitation course. We wish Vasily a speedy recovery with the hope that next year the defender will return to the ranks of the blue and yellows and mark this event with his debut in the game.
The team is scheduled to fly to Slovakia tomorrow. Departure from Boryspil airport to Bratislava with further transfer to Trnava is scheduled for 12.00.
Tomorrow, the players will test the lawn of the Malatynsky Stadium, where the final match of the group tournament of the UEFA Premier League of Nations will be played with the Slovaks on Friday.
