Today the national team started its preparatory training in Kharkiv. In fact, the team settled in the Superior & Golf Resort the day before: the coaching staff headed by the head of Andrei Shevchenko, as well as the administrative and medical corps began work the day before. The players, as expected, arrived at the location of the main team of the country on Monday.

Most of the collections arrived on a regular morning flight from Kyiv. Legionnaires Andriy Yarmolenko and Andriy Lunin were also in this group. The rest of the players playing abroad - Ruslan Malinovsky, Eduard Sobol, Igor Plastun, Yevhen Shakhov, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Roman Yaremchuk - will arrive at the location of the main team of the country later in the evening due to the combination of their air routes.

After the arrival of the main group of players, they had more than an hour to adapt to the well-known apartments of the hotel, which has long been a cozy home for the team. The silence of the country base, picturesque landscapes and attentive staff - all this together contributes to the best possible attitude to responsible matches.

Tonight, the blue and yellows will hold the first classes: first, the whole team will have a fitness workout in the hotel gym, and those players who did not get enough load in yesterday's matches for their clubs, will also run at the stadium "Sunny". Tomorrow the team's program includes an open training session at Metalist, to which coaches and players invite all fans.
