One of the best players of the match against “Aris” was the left defender of Kiev Vladislav Dubinchak. Very active throughout the match and extra time in Bucharest.

At the beginning of the second half, with the score 1:1, he blocked a shot on the empty corner of Georgy Bushchan’s goal from Montoya. In fact, this left the people of Kiev in the game. Earned a suspension for Domagoj Pavicic. He converted a penalty when it was already going to the first miss.
Of course, in the case of the conceded goal, Vlad is also to blame. Because the pitch came from his flank, he could not block it. The right-back and center backs are no less to blame.
Very soon, the matches of the national teams in the selection for Euro 2024 will begin. I believe that Vladislav Dubinchak not only deserved a non-debut call to the national team, but will also have a chance to compete for a place in the squad.
Vitaliy Mikolenko is not yet playing for Everton. The former Dynamo defender did not train for the season with the team due to an injury. He was not in the first round against Fulham either. I can assume that the Toffee mentor Sean Dyche doesn’t really count on the left-back from Ukraine. Mikolenko’s problems in Liverpool began in the spring.
Eduard Sobol is also injured. He has problems with his shin. In the first round of the French championship against Lyon, he did not play. Last season, Eduard moved from Club Brugge to Strasbourg. In France, he did not become one hundred percent his own. The team fought for survival. In the summer, Strasbourg was headed by the legendary Patrick Vieira. So far, it is very difficult to talk about Sobol’s prospects with a new coach.
In the summer, Bogdan Mikhailichenko became a Dynamo (Zagreb) player. Shakhtar did not buy out his contract, and Anderlecht did not need him. Zagreb has Robert Ljubicic at left-back. Bogdan gets game practice in the middle of the field. Now the Croatian “Dinamo” is a bit in crisis. We lost in the first round of the derby to Hajduk, then did not win against Gorica. At home, they lost to AEK in the Champions League qualification – 1:2. The team is definitely not “wow” yet.
Viktor Kornienko waved his legs a lot in the last championship match against Dnipro-1. That’s why he got disqualified. Patrick van Leeuwen transferred winger Dmitry Topalov to this position. They took the young Brazilian Pedrinho. Now there is information that Irakli Azorovi is a Georgian from Crvena Zveda. Kornienko’s prospects look very vague.
For the youth national team of Ukraine, the main left-back at Euro 2023 (U-21) was Konstantin Vivcharenko. He can play in the next selection. In the opening matches of the new season, he came out at the very end of the game against Obolon. Kostya’s playing condition cannot be good.
