Fedorchuk today chose the most problematic position of the Ukrainian national team

In an exclusive interview with Meta.ua Oleg Fedorchuk He analyzed the current personnel situation of the Ukrainian national team and identified the most problematic position.

“Vitaly Mikolenko, Ilya Zabarny and Nikolai Matvienko are beyond competition,” Fedorchuk said. – However, there is a decline in the right-back position of the Ukrainian national team. Plus or minus, we have three actors of the same level for this role: Efim Konoplya, Alexander Karavaev and Alexander Tymchik.

However, it is not yet known whether Konoplya, who decided not to renew his contract with Pitmen, will play for Shakhtar in the spring and his situation is not stable. Karavaev has had little game practice lately, affecting his potential, and Tymchik has missed a lot of time due to injuries. In my opinion, this is the most problematic position in the national team right now.

Let us also remind you that the winner of the semi-final match between Ukraine and Sweden on March 26 will face the best team in the match between 31st ranked Poland and Albania in the decisive match to advance to the 2026 World Cup final.
