The day before tomorrow's Euro 2024 qualifier match between Ukraine and England, which will take place at the "Tychy-Arena" in Wrocław, Poland (kickoff at 7 PM Kyiv time), the head coach of our opponent Gareth Southgate spoke to the media.

"We understand that there are thousands of Ukrainians living in Wrocław who were forced to flee the war, and we know how emotional tomorrow's match could be. But we came here to play football and will try to achieve a positive result."

The Ukrainian national team is a very dangerous and organized squad that excels particularly on counterattacks. We need to stay focused and try to neutralize the opponent's players in the central zone.

We are aware of the circumstances under which we are playing. We know many players from Ukraine’s national team who play in the Premier League. We understand the situation our opponent is in. We support Ukrainians, but tomorrow we need to play football," Southgate said specifically.
