With only three days left until the Euro 2024 qualifying game against North Macedonia, the countdown to the first of two matches in October for the Ukrainian national team has begun.
After the weather miraculously changed for the better, the trend towards spring warmth in October continues: today the air temperature in Prague rose to 24 degrees. Consequently, the fitness session, previously planned in the gym, was moved outdoors, according to press secretary of the Ukrainian national team Alexander Glivinsky.
On the upper level of the hotel, where the Ukrainian national team lives, there is a slightly smaller football field. There, physical training coach Vitaly Kuliba conducted stretching for the team and suggested exercises for the core muscles. In addition, on the way to the upper field, an unexpected transport awaited the guys: a one-and-a-half minute ride on a funicular connecting two hotel buildings, for training days – a rather pleasant attraction.
As for fitness, although it took place under the pleasant rays of the sun, it required tangible efforts from the guys, which in the future will only have a positive effect on their body. And although we had to sweat a little, friendly jokes and mutual support had their effect: everyone left the training with a smile.
In the evening, all 26 performers present at the camp again took to the field of the stadium in the Strahov district of Prague. Only Denis Popov continues his individual training on the field. The dynamics of its renewal are positive. The other guys started jogging and warming up, after which the coaching staff paid most attention to developing the structure of the game, tactical exercises and working on passing. In combination with tactical training, which also takes place every day, there is targeted preparation for a specific opponent.
