On the fifth day of the Spanish camp, the national team of Ukraine gathered in full: in the morning, our last legionnaires arrived at the hotel of the team in Marbella.

Roman Yaremchuk still had time to start breakfast, Serhiy Sydorchuk and Ruslan Malinovskyi found their partners after finishing the morning meal, but Anatoliy Trubin arrived an hour after that, so he saw the boys already before lunch.

Thus, all 28 players summoned by Serhii Rebrov for the March training camp came to the evening training, which, like all the previous ones, took place on the field of the "Banus" football center. After all, the work program was not the same for everyone. The guys who recently played and got to the location of the blue and yellow team — Ruslan Malinovskyi, Artem Dovbyk, Bohdan Mykhailichenko, Mykhailo Mudryk, Serhiy Sydorchuk and Roman Yaremchuk — ran and performed a set of exercises to restore muscles. Viktor Tsygankov, who is known to have suffered damage to the medial collateral ligament of the knee joint, is currently working individually: according to the head doctor of the Ukrainian national team, Roman Zholobailyuk, there are positive dynamics in the recovery.

The main part of the players at the evening training performed coaching tasks, working within the game series on possession and control of the ball, traditionally the national teams practiced passing. The trio of goalkeepers worked in full force today under the guidance of goalkeeper coach Rustam Khudzhamov. The tactical formation of the Bosnia national team has already begun to be analyzed at theoretical classes, so preparations for the semi-finals of the Euro selection playoffs are gradually being finalized.
