Ruslan Rotan: UPL has to restart by any means necessary
The head coach of the youth national team of Ukraine Ruslan Rotan commented on the results of the draw for the Euro-2023 (U-21) qualifiers.
“I immediately said that we should get the opponent that we will pass. We accept the draw as it is. Slovakia is a very strong team. We have already played with them at the tournament in Antalya and lost - 2:3.
As for the players of the youth national team of Ukraine, it is very important that our championship starts. It's hard for guys when they aren't physically prepared. That is why UPL has to restart by any means necessary.
We will have some new talents in the team, but already have the main squad. All the guys who played in the qualifying round, will have to prove that we are worthy of getting to the European Championship."
