The head coach of Irish national team Stephen Kenny spoke to the media before the Nations League game against Ukraine.

"Due to a groin injury, our striker Michael Obafemi may not play tomorrow. However, I hope that Cedozi Ogbene will replace him if he manages to overcome his injury problems. Our task is to compensate for losses. I am sure that whoever replaces the injured will not weaken our team.

We have a big challenge ahead of us. Ukraine has achieved brilliant results and has already shown everyone its quality", Kenny said.
