The head coach of the national team of Ukraine Oleksandr Petrakov spoke at a press conference after the home match against Ireland (1:1).

- Why did you make only three substitutions?
- We still have sick players. It was difficult to replace them in such a game. This is my decision as a head coach.

- Are you disappointed with the actions of the defense during the goal?
- Yes, I'm disappointed that it happened. The defender of the opposing team passed from the center of the field and they scored.

- Will there be any new players in the national team?
- There will be no new names now. So many people have already made their debut. I thought you would say that we already have enough debutants...

I want to thank Lodz, this is a special city in my life. Thank you Poland for the reception, for helping us.
