Zinchenko: We thank Andriy Pyatov for his excellent career
Ukraine's midfielder Oleksandr Zinchenko said his farewells to goalkeeper Andriy Pyatov, who played his last game for the national team.
“When this legendary footballer was already playing for the Ukrainian national team, I was only ten years old. His career in the national team is a role model and motivation for self-improvement. Being the number one of the Ukrainian national team for many years, he performed the most difficult task.
The most beautiful farewell is when you have something to say, but you leave after the standing ovation. He would definitely still be useful for the national team, but we respect his decision and thank him for an excellent career,” says Zinchenko's Instagram post.
