Head coach of the Slovak national team Francesco Calzona shared his thoughts on the second round match of the Euro 2024 group stage against Ukraine.
«I believe that Ukraine has a high quality and identity in the game they show under the guidance of the new coaching staff. We have a tough opponent ahead, but we also have our strong points.
Our greatest source of strength is humility. In order to please our fans, we will have to give 110% on the field.
It was not difficult to psychologically motivate the players. After the victory over Belgium, they enjoyed the feeling, but we understand that three points from the match against Ukraine will not be enough to advance to the playoffs. Right now we have no reasons to celebrate, we are fully focused on the upcoming game,» Calzona noted.
