Ruslan Rotan: “I plan to attend the World Cup in Poland and cheer for Alexander Petrakov's team”

Head coach of the U-21 U-XNUMX national team Ruslan Rotan summed up the results of his work at the Turkish assembly.

The first team under the leadership of Ruslan Rothan held the youth team of Ukraine in Turkey, taking part in the tournament Antalya Cup. After returning home, the head coach of the blue and yellows in an interview with the official site of the FFU told about the victory in these competitions and the work done in general.

- Ruslan Petrovich, did you set a task for the team to win the tournament at the training camp in Turkey?

- No. Although in the first lesson we agreed with the guys that every training session, every game should be held with maximum motivation and dedication. Therefore, in Turkey, the coaching staff had no complaints about this, except that upset the end of the match with Latvia. But the main thing is that the guys were absorbed in our idea that every tournament and every trophy is very important. Only in this way can the psychology of the winner be formed.

- What match in the tournament can you highlight in terms of the quality of action of your wards?

- With the same Latvia and Estonia. Interestingly, these are the fights in which we did not win. However, it is clear that the guys are trying to meet all the requirements. By the end of the collection, some of the fruits of this work were already visible.

- How do you, as the head coach, remember the last training camp?

- The fact that he was my debut as a coach of the youth national team of Ukraine. And, of course, a victory, because winning, even in a friendly tournament, is always nice. The guys and I said goodbye to positive emotions, and this is an important factor.

- You did not involve football players born in 1999 and 2000 роботи

- So. We did not want to interfere with the U-19 and U-20 national teams to prepare for the official starts. But we are watching the personal achievements of the players. For many guys, the World Cup in Poland will be very useful. I plan to see and cheer for Oleksandr Petrakov's team in the first two matches of the tournament.
