Together with Oleksandr Petrakov, Pylypiv participated in the pre-match press conference dedicated to the game against Finland (October 9, 7:00 PM). The half-back of Ukraine's national team, Mykola Shaparenko, also took part.

— You scored a great goal against France. Do you expect to continue and score again tomorrow?

— The game with the French national team is already in the past. Tomorrow we have an extremely important match, and we will be aiming for a winning result.

— What do you expect from tomorrow's match?

— Tomorrow two teams will play, both of which need to win. There will be a lot of fighting.

— How do you see Oleksandr Petrakov's football philosophy and what changes have occurred compared to the period under Andriy Shevchenko's leadership?

— We played with five defenders under Andriy Shevchenko, and we continue to do so now. There are certain changes, but discussing them doesn't make sense.
