At the first meeting in its history, the youth national team of Ukraine U-15 (players not older than 2004) will play two sparring matches with Romanian peers.

The first training camp of the youngest national team of Ukraine started yesterday. Until the departure to Romania, which is scheduled for April 1, Serhiy Nagornyak's wards will work in the mode of double training. Sparring with the Romanians will take place on the 2nd (beginning - at 16.00) and on April 4 (16.00). Both matches will take place in the suburbs of Bucharest, the town of Buft.

Recall that at this gathering arrived 20 players, however, no Dynamo players were on the list. Serhiy Nagornyak, the head coach of the Ukrainian U-15 national team, commented on the situation.

- Serhiy Mykolayovych, why aren't there any representatives of Dynamo Kyiv in the national team?

- The headquarters of the national team timely addressed a challenge to FC Dynamo (Kyiv) for seven players to participate in this training camp. But the management of the Kyiv club asked not to call Dynamo players to the national team for now. For a detailed explanation of such a request, please contact Dynamo. I can only state that the players of the club did not arrive at the location of the national team at the appointed time, and we had to call the performers from the nearest reserve.

- Will this collection be familiar to you?

- The situation was such that my main attention was focused on the U-19 national team, which was preparing for the elite round of the Euro. Although I tried as hard as I could to keep an eye on the U-15 candidates. I also talked to club coaches. It didn't make sense to travel around the cities, as the DUFLU championship had not yet resumed. So let's get to know the guys better during this meeting, and in the future we will continue to follow other candidates.
