Dynamo Kyiv winger Vladyslav Kabaev shared his thoughts on the international break, and also talked about the team's preparation for the next matches in the Ukrainian Premier League.
"My family went to Odesa, so now I am alone in Kyiv. There were several days off - four days. I rested for two days, and the other two - I came to the base and worked, because somewhere I lack that quality on the field.
It is almost the first time that we have such a long international break, we have scheduled sparring with Zorya and mini-meetings at the base. We are preparing in a good mood, on a positive note. I missed the ball a little, the boys, today we finally got together in a good mood at the base.
A lot has already been said about the start of the season. I have analyzed this for myself a long time ago, watched the games, made a certain conclusion for myself, but let it remain with me.
Is such a long pause beneficial or vice versa? It's hard to say because this is the first time. I don't see anything wrong with that. Of course, it is much better to have one or two games a week than to practice so much without official matches. But there is nothing terrible, we will also get used to such a break.
I think that every football player and coach keeps the upcoming matches in their thoughts, but this has not been discussed yet, because there is still a long time before the matches. Of course, we understand that the Carpathians are on the way, Polissia is on the way, then Shakhtar. We all understand what the fans and we ourselves expect from us. Only the game will show how it will be. I have already said that if we go out with such fire in our eyes, as for the match with LNZ, then everything is in our hands, legs and heads. I think everything will be fine.
Many partners went to the national team? We spend so much time together that sometimes we also need a break from each other. I've seen photos from the national team's headquarters, I watch vlogs about the national team, so I basically know what a friendly atmosphere there is. Tomorrow we will watch the match against Hungary and cheer for our team.
There is always a lot of criticism about the national team due to high expectations. I understand the reason. I believe in the boys, I know that there are great talents among them. I believe in the head coach. We will cheer tomorrow. I hope that after the match we will all have positive emotions," the club's press service quoted Kabayeva as saying.
It should be noted that during the break, Dynamo will hold a sparring match against Luhansk Zora - the game will be held on September 27 or 28.
