Mykolenko and Kovalenko set to miss Ukraine's game against Scotland
Head coach of the Ukrainian national team Oleksandr Petrakov attended a press conference before the match against Scotland.
"Vitaly Mikolenko has a micro-injury. Viktor Kovalenko has the same problem. Everyone else is healthy. Now everyone will go to training and we will decide the team for tomorrow.
Why are we taking player from Ukraine U-21 team? Anatoly Trubin is a player of the first team, but in May he went to the youth team so that we could say goodbye to Andriy Pyatov. Now I myself decided to send Trubin, Sirota and Sikan to the youth team. But I said that if something happens, I would take them back. Trubin is now in the main team and he is ready to play.
Should we play with three defenders tomorrow? Thank you for your advice, but we will make this decision ourselves."
