Kermanych of the "blue-yellows" emphasized the strength of the opponent that his wards will have to face.

According to Petrakov, the starting line-up of the Ukrainian national team will undergo changes compared to the last match against Armenia, which ended with

.

"Will the squad decision be the most important thing in my career? No. I don't want to offend the Armenian national team in any way, but each player of the national team of Armenia individually and each player of the national team of Scotland individually is a very big difference. The Scots play in the English Premier- league. The choice won't be difficult. There will be changes, but that's always the case in football. No, it's not difficult for me,

Petrakov also answered questions about his future in the Ukrainian national team.

The 65-year-old specialist's contract expires at the end of 2022, so it is possible that the game with Scotland could be his last as coach of the "blue and yellow".

According to the coach, he has not yet had any negotiations with UAF about extending cooperation.

"I have been working as the head coach of the Ukrainian national team for about a year now. I have already adapted. At first it was very difficult. The specificity of working in the national team is that here every match is responsible. The responsibility here increases many times over. In front of people, in front of everyone. And the level of these matches is very high - one match is worth ten in the domestic championship. After the national team matches at home I feel very tired. Very difficult. But I leave quickly, literally in three or four days. National team matches are a very serious level. It is not pressure, but responsibility very large.

There are no negotiations (with UAF - note).

The match is tomorrow, you will know everything after it.

This is a question for the president of the UAF,"
