Before tomorrow's Nations League match between Ukraine and Ireland, which will take place at the LKS Stadium in Łódź, Poland (kick-off at 21:45 Kyiv time), the head coach of our opponent, Stephen Kenny, spoke to the media.
"Due to a groin injury, Michael Obafemi may not play tomorrow. However, I hope that Ché Adams will qualitatively replace him if he can overcome his own issues related to an injury."
Our task is to compensate for the losses. I am confident that whoever replaces the injured players will not weaken our team.
We face a great challenge. Ukraine has achieved impressive results and has already shown everyone its quality,"— noted Kenny.
