At 11:00 AM, the blue-yellows were already on the training field of the Wehen Wiesbaden club, which was relegated to the second tier of the German league at the end of this season. This field will be the main training ground for the Ukrainian team. It is located five minutes from the hotel where the team is staying, in the village of Halberg, adjacent to Taunusstein. The condition of the pitch is excellent, so the rainy weather and cold that greeted our players did not affect the quality of their work.

This morning, the players had an intense training session, working on strength stations and then performing tactical drills, practicing passing with finishing shots on goal. The team also worked in groups on defensive and attacking actions.
