Today, the gathering of our national team began in Kyiv.

In the morning, the footballers began to gather at their capital residence at the September meeting - the Hilton Hotel. One of the first to arrive was the player of the Italian "Atalanta" Ruslan Malinovsky. The Serie A debutant arrived in Kyiv in the morning and immediately went to the hotel - setting up for an important selection match requires organization.

As scheduled, most of the players arrived at the camp of the main team at noon. Settling in their apartments, at 13.00 the boys gathered for lunch. The first meal could not do without the traditional Ukrainian borscht - the team has a lot of legionnaires who lack this national dish abroad.

After lunch, the players went to rest. Tonight they will have an open training session at the Olimpiysky National Sports Complex, which will start at 18.00 p.m. Footballers are looking forward to meeting with fans, who always charge for maximum results. Before the start of the lesson, the head coach of the national team Andriy Shevchenko will meet with the media in the conference hall of the arena (the meeting will start at 17.20 pm).
