News from the camp of the national team of Ukraine: the arrival of three legionnaires and plans to relocate to Italy

On the first day of the third week of the preparatory training camp in Slovenia, the blue and yellow team started training. Before the visit to Italy and Croatia, head coach Oleksandr Petrakov held a pre-game session.

The coaching staff is already working out tactics that will be used in the next two control matches, there is a distribution of teams and tasks for players in the match with "Empoli" and "Rijeka". In particular, today's training was preceded by a tactical lesson on the analysis of the game of the Tuscan team.

At lunch, three of our performers from foreign championships arrived at the national team's camp - Oleksandr Zubkov from Ferencvaros in Hungary, Taras Kacharaba from Slavia in the Czech Republic and Danilo Sikan from the Hanseatic League in Germany. The guys immediately immersed themselves in communication with teammates. All three will fly to Italy tonight as part of the national team.

Instead, two players will remain in Brdo. Goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin, whom Oleksandr Petrakov is releasing to the camp of the youth national team of Ukraine, which will meet in Turkey on May 17, will fly to the U-21 team tomorrow. But midfielder Serhiy Bulets stumbled and injured his ankle ligament this morning. So he will stay in Slovenia for now.

Thus, today at 20.30 Central European Time on a charter flight Ljubljana - Pisa, 24 players will depart as part of the Ukrainian delegation. Today, the Ukrainians have already trained, so there will be no traditional training on the field of the match and the pre-match press conference in Empoli, as well as in Rijeka, where the blue and yellows will arrive on the day of the game. However, the post-match communication of the head coach with the media will take place (Ukrainian media will receive links to the Zoom conference through the UAF media channel).

Today, after arriving in Pisa, the national team of Ukraine will cover another 90 km by bus to Florence, where he will stay at the Hilton Florence Metropole.

Tomorrow morning, the national team will train at the famous base of the Italian Football Federation in Koverciano, which is just a 25-minute drive away.

And two hours before the start of the control match, the teams will go to Empoli: "Carlo Castellani Stadium" is about the same distance from the "Hilton" as the base of the Italian national team. After the game with Empoli, the blue and yellows will return to the hotel, and the next morning will fly to Rijeka.
