Oleksandr Petrakov, Ukraine head coach:

“The training camp went very well, the guys did well, I'm happy with everyone. We enjoyed a great reception in Slovenia, just like at home. The players’ morale is sky-high. There is no need to influence them, to say anything: they are experienced footballers and understand everything perfectly well.”
