that is why zarya is so passive about this, why zarya is not developing, why zarya is not developing ukrainian football, it still remains a question, and to a large extent , in general, some kind of fate is strange in this season, first lovat was appointed there, then kryvyntsov was replaced there by koval, for now, because what is happening in the dawn there is very difficult to understand, it is not such a public team, not such an open team as shakhtar donetsk, so we can only guess there, insiders do not want to listen to it, because the insider... as a rule, on the contrary, they mislead us there everyone therefore, perhaps we should draw some conclusions ourselves, let's say after this conclusion of the group tournament, it will be remembered to a large extent that the first and the last, well , the last one is now remembered 4:0 over brideblick, still a very worthy dawn finished the group tournament of the conference league, well, let's see this tournament table, where even before the group stage, most fans still gave zorya second place. well, the third is also an option, because

there we also understand, gen is good, and maccabi is also a good team, and bri dublik was written off, yes and it happened, although, well, these two very strange matches with maccabi, where the first half is a failure, they lose 3:0, and then they just start playing, well, it was wrong, yes, in fact, there was a lot of lack of stability in this group stage tournament, and now it’s not enough in the championship, because luhansk zora has a constant swing, so it just affected... right at this gurk tournament, zorya, by its potential, definitely had to count on the first, second step, exit from the group, the group did not difficult, absolutely the teeth were dawning, taking into account the experience of both the players and the club, and we saw that even despite all the problems, it was still there, well, the only position that was there, well, let's say, strange, was that bol came from the position of the right defender, there , because danchenko doesn't actually play the best matches after a very serious illness, and to a large extent the star lineup. absolutely competitively capable against the background

of the opponents that zorya had in this group tournament. as we can see, our competitors on the table of coefficients, they are the opposite of this tournament of the conference league they use it as a bridgehead for scoring points , but what about us, that this season is generally terrible, that there are only two victories and a draw, dnipro-1, spartak-3, navi lost, although if it had passed, it could also count on a good draw there and a set of points, well, dynamo lost to besektas and besektas played, well , besektas appears only for dynamo. was a strong opponent, and for the rest of it he simply also took third place, there he won once and drew once, and here we are in more detail about dynamo, about the championship of ukraine, about the fact that dynamo after all decided and appointed oleksandr shavkovskyi as a coach, we will talk about how andriy shevchenko wants to become the president after such a short pause, wait.

vasyl zima's big broadcast, this is big ether , my name is vasyl zimaim, let's start, two hours of airtime, two hours of your time, many important topics we will discuss with you today, two hours to learn about the war, right now we will talk more about the war talk, serhiy zgurets is with us, and how the world lives, now about what happened in the world, yuriy fizar will speak in more detail, yuriy good evening, please, i have two hours to keep up with the economy. time to talk about money during the war, oleksandr morchivka is with us, oleksandr, welcome, please, and sports news, a review of sports events from yevhen postukhov, two hours in the company of your favorite presenters. thank you very much to elina chechenna for the information about cultural news, presenters that have become familiar to many. natalka dyadenko is already ready to tell us about the weather on the day of my birthday, as well as the distinguished guests of the studio. andriy parubiy, people's deputy of ukraine, was also chairman of the verkhovna rada of ukraine. events of the day in two hours. vasyl's big broadcast. in winter, a project for smart and

caring people in the evenings with espresso. this is a football format, we continue to talk about the most interesting things from the world of ukrainian football. we have already walked along shakhtar, and before dawn it was our turn to go to dynamo, dynamo-kyiv. well, i would, if they had told me earlier that the victories over kryvbas, rukh, metalist 1925 and obolon would be perceived as simply great. achievements and for this they are appointed head coach, i laughed, but are these realities now? well, although he is not crying at the moment, in fact, well , it is, now kyiv dynamo, from that status again, from that brand that kyiv dynamo has, those results that were under luchynsk, they absolutely did not correspond to kyiv dynamo, yes, and now oleksandr shovslovsky passed on such a desire, on such a fresh breath and now he only wins, sweeps away everyone on his way, and it is very important to note... that

a fresh breath has appeared, there is no fresh blood yet , although it should be there in the winter after all three reinforcements should still come to kyiv dynamo football players, new, fresh football players, and again... we are talking about the fact that kyiv dynamo should win everything, should fight only for the championship title, but for that, well, no there is enough of that composition, those performers who are currently at the disposal of oleksandr shavkovskyi and his coaching staff. let's move on, you see, then with movement and blood pressure, let's say such matches were quite in favor of dynamo, everything consisted of the skin, which early withdrawals were quite tired, because all the players of kyiv obolon went back and barely hid, well, they found a match and this goal... either, let's put it this way, well, someone says that there was a half-offside, someone says that it was a half-foul, but dynamo also scored a goal 2:0 wins. well, before, everyone would have laughed if they had seen benito, in principle, as part of kyiv dynamo, a couple of years ago, if they had said that benito would play and also score for dynamo, well, it

would be perceived as a joke, currently he is actually bringing also the result, his goal, and again, the goal of kichak, the former goalkeeper of kyiv dynamo, and i constantly remember mykola petrovych pavlov, who says that operators are judged not by the balls he takes, but by the ones he misses, so kichak, who pulled several dangerous shots, missed a shot from benito under him, which was ultimately decisive in this match, let's see the lineup and understand that this lineup really has positions, but goalkeeper bushchan is still a player, the goalkeeper of the national team, who passed a good euro there back in in 2021, this is a normal position, but the center of the defense, what is dachuk, what is an orphan at the moment, well , there is not enough of such a thing... it is definitely necessary to strengthen this position , without a doubt, that is, these football players and the orphan yaychuk are of a good level, but if we say about the championship, victory in the championship and then about ambitions in the champions league, then this is definitely not enough and we need experienced, strong , powerful, bright central defenders who would

actually make a difference, as well as in the support zone, in principle a good trio, brashko , shaparenko and buyalskyi, but someone from them, if, god forbid, they fall out, then that’s it, there is no such clear thing anymore... here is the performer who could answer, we are now talking with a stretch that, after all, they all answer to kyiv dynamo, so the same applies to the attack , vanat is still psychologically unstable , first of all emotionally, and volosh nikobayev is a possible substitute for super footballers, especially voloshyn, and again, as a basis, much stronger performers are needed for kyiv dynamo, much more status, more powerful performers, well we are waiting for the return of andrii yarmolenko, who , after all, i think that from the second part... he will start to play more stably, look, come on, he was doing volunteer work then, a free recommendation is possible, before, well , we considered that ludogorets had a good defender plastun, there is kacharaba in slavia , something happened to the boys this season, they only played a few matches there, maybe

dynamo will turn to such performers, and it will be a reinforcement, for sure kacharaba of iron bitumen would be a reinforcement, as far as plastun is concerned, still after all, the year is such that, well, you know, it's hard to find. motivation, although kyiv dynamo is an indisputable motivation for plasun, if i am not mistaken, he is from kyiv, by the way, he is from obolon, if he had started, he would have such a stellar path, so for him it was a supermotivation, a question of speed, how much he now corresponds to modern speeds, after all, for a central defender, not only experience, as we see from porakidska, but speed is still necessary, is it enough for ihor plastun at the moment, if we talk in the context, especially dynamo needs to get into the eurocup battles, well, the eurocups, let's say , because... the fight is still quite serious in the championship, and let's see the table, that this series belongs to dynamo with four wins in a row and already behind the lost points dynamo- shakhtar equalized and ahead of their closest pursuers and not far behind in terms of actual points, there are three matches in reserve and six points away from kryvbas and

dnipro-1. well, it absolutely has to be a relevant, normal, serviceable situation, when shakhtar and dynamo have to play championship title and that's it. they have to represent ukraine in the eurocups, because we saw that it is a problem when someone else , well, the miner has answered all the skeptics for now, having successfully played the group tournament of the champions league, all the other clubs did not manage to score the points that are needed for ukraine in order to have the largest representation in the eurocups. well, i'm saying, this table, it seems to me, well, it's possible to say plus-minus clearly, that there are the first five teams that are currently in the table, they will only fight for the championship, the same there of the last... teams from oleksandria there to minai, well, minai, in general, something terrible is happening with the team, well, minai currently looks like it has no chance of keeping its registration, but i think that the dawn will rise, after all, well, this 14th does not count either position, that's why i think that zorya can even compete

for the european cups by potential, plus luhansk zorya still have unplayed matches, so yes, and to a large extent they have to fight for the championship title, well , first of all, shakhtar and dynamo, well, that's absolutely fine. .. it would be adequate, and other teams are in favor the third place, and dnipro-1, kryvbas, and polisi, good, very strong teams that should compete for bronze medals, was already a game. vorskla rukh, let's say , they played for half a season and they were very different, they said rukh, well done, such a good team, vorskla , on the contrary, fails, and as it turns out, they are neighbors in the tournament table, and in this match even some referees prevented vorskla from winning over the movement, yes, according to the referee, there are serious, very serious questions, how this match was handled, well, actually, well, maybe, i would note that the state of the lawn was not the best, although again ... considering the month of december, it is very difficult to prepare

the lawn, therefore, the field, therefore, to a large extent, after all, we saw a good match, a quality match, both teams played selflessly, and you see that it is still a draw in the end, thanks to the fact that stepaniuk was removed unfairly, in the end it is still a draw, which may have just given chances to the opponents of these teams, they will still fight for the european cup positions to the last , well, just telling us already. what is this is the term stepping, it is when they step on the foot, the horses just stepped on the penalty area line, the penalty area line is actually the penalty area, and there is a var, there is everything, there is an obvious violation, how, how to explain it, that it was not assigned penalty, it's very strange, what's happening this time, as it happened before and this season, and despite the fact that there is a var system, well, what if it is insurance, that is, the manager did not notice, but there is still a referee. ..varu, which should focus on violations, on such controversial episodes,

although after repetitions it is clear that there there are no more disputes, i can’t explain it, well, now mondzel romanov has been suspended for obvious mistakes, but the teams suffer from this, well, they still suffer, well, for them , it’s not satisfaction that romanova is there were disqualified and what, but the teams did not score the desired points, the desired points, not needed, well , needed in this situation, let's go, there is such a topic, you know, violinists of vorskla, and for some reason , a topic constantly emerges there every three months, then the violinist of dnipro, then somewhere else, but now about the metalist 1925 team, which, well, spends the end of the season terribly, and there is no way to talk about any eurocup ambitions at all, well , metalists 1925 are also possible for this first year, but when viktor skrypnyk works, we see that the systematic approach for... bears fruit, wherever he worked in all clubs, well, especially in ukraine, now we are talking, well, before that

, the german experience also speaks of him as a strong mentor, so i think that here to a large extent we are talking about that the new president at metalist 1925, respectively new ambitions and with a violinist in the next season, metalist may also be a contender for our current realities, may even be a contender for the title depending on what the composition of the kharkiv team will be, well, that's a touch about ukrainian football metalist 192. played five times in kyiv, and after the game they come and their bus, the police is standing there, they say, we will arrest them, take the bus away, because according to the documents it is there belonging to an old metal worker, but still they agreed that first they would bring the team and only then this bus they took it away, and they say that they will most likely buy it back, but there is such a story about ukrainian football that even a bus is driven by a team that is under arrest, well , again, this is our reality, which we are talking about, well, it is a big one... what is being said about skrypnyk, how they are talking about the coach of metalist 1925, here i

think that it will also be such a blow for vorsla, because i understand that there was not the best relationship between skrypnyk and the club, but still now we need to find alternative and who can continue to lead the orsk team with ambitions, with european cup plans, so here we will wait now for the decision, and they are always original, we know that vorsla always knows how to find an even better replacement, a better... native for the one who is leaving, well, you hint that they somehow appointed u-19 and andrushchak, then it is possible even such decisions will be made, well, first of all, yes , and she was appointed, it was already such a hype for all ukrainian football, secondly, again, when maksymov left, they said who could replace maksym, skrypnyk came, the team became to play even harder, the team began to play even more actively, proactively, became to play is even more attractive, so now we are waiting for another such non-standard move. the leadership of the poltava vorstvo , well, let's go through the teams i hear about, well, the leaders first of all, here is kryvbas,

because of what in your opinion, kryvbas still has at least two leaders there, but according to personal meetings, he goes to spend the winter in first place, well here is an unequivocal answer, it is the coaching approach, the systematic approach of yuriy vernadob, we see that already the football that vernodup puts in, and he is just bearing its fruits in the second season, not having a superstructure. unlike shakhtar there, well, dynamo does not have a super squad, but dnipro has one super squad, and eh, well, again under the current conditions, and we are talking about the fact that kryvbas looks very powerful, especially. in home matches, and the away model too, almost always consistently brings points to kryvbas, well, at home, how does kryvbas play, here in general, well, all teams in yuriy oradub are always at home, and few could bounce back there earlier, when he is there at all there is luhansk zorya, remember the home matches, zorya she let go few people from the domestic protestors, in the same way, in the crooked corner, there are few who

can score points from this team, that is dnipro-1, it seemed that they would guess with this appointment. yuriy maksimova, things have improved, but i am alarmed by the interviews of their leaders, hutsolyak and pihalonka, they do not say that we will stay here, we want to fight for the championship, they say that there will be an offer, we will think, so not everything, thank god, especially since the investor of the team is currently under arrest, well, not an official investor, ihor kolomoiskyi is under arrest, although everyone knows exactly where they get the funds for the dnipro-1 club, once and for all. in fact, there are delays in salaries and there is no vision of what will happen further in the club, therefore, under these conditions, definitely the leaders who claim to play in stronger championships can even speak about it frankly, especially oleksandr pihalonok, who is actually in okay, he is a national team player, but hutsulyak tells everyone that he should play in the national team, he tells them, he is not told that he should

play in the national team, i play great, who else, he says i pass there, metalist 1925 scored there, who... still needs to score so that serhii rebrov pays attention to me, but hutsulyak does not finish his work in defense, hutsulyak does not score his chances, wastes so much, does not behave in the best way on the field, so it is clear, that it is unlikely that they will be able to call him to the national team in the near future, and even more so, if he scored there with the same pass or someone else, in every match there, roughly speaking , he would have statistics there of 17 matches, 15 goals or 10, he i think he scored five goals and for this season, well half a season, this is a kind of indicator. and he plays for the favorite , despite the fact that dnipro-1 was, in principle, the clear favorite of the championship, well, probably on par with the donetsk miner, and he plays stably and without alternatives, that is, under any mentor, he still plays the basic rules, or there on the left, well, there if he converts, an attacking samohav, in fact an attacker, because he

does not work out in defense, so in fact he plays constantly in the attack and should probably score the most in the championship, well, here i am statistics 14 mat'. five goals in the championship and only one assist. last season it was a little more interesting with assists. polissia zhytomyrske, a debutant of the premier league, but this is the impression , you know, yuri kalitvintsev found such experienced players who teach, who play, and about makuan, this legionnaire, fast, kalitvintsev, direct speech, as i saw him, i told him that he is pure mbappe, it seems to me that here he could have run into some kind of racism, that it was good that he said pure, and not antonov before that word. well, you see, and then, as they say, the nickname stuck, that’s what they call him there, the zhytomyr mbappe makuana, well, this season makuana is good enough, stable enough, like the whole team, good conditions, you see, a good city, a good base, that is why the president is ambitious here, so we see that this stability affects

the results of the team accordingly, somewhat unexpectedly, because the team is a debutant, but we see that it is absolutely... fair that polissya continues to fight for the highest positions, as well polisi quite actively works on the media market, she is hyping, doing pr, this story with usyk, do you think he will at least come to a game somewhere in the spring of the championship? well, i think it will work out, whatever happens next, but it will work out anyway. now, of course, it is a duel with fury for him, number one in life, in terms of sports and professional nature, but i think that for self-promotion, we can see that he loves it. he is promoting himself for the pr of the zhytomyr club, and plus he has good financial conditions, i think that he will come out somewhere, maybe there, again, from some penalty there and will even be able to score a historic goal for myself. as for such teams, we already talked about chatarden, the movement looked very nice, but something is missing, as well as chornomorets, somehow you know that some matches are playing super well, but you look at the table,

well, the eighth place there is just a little ahead of the seventh there, tenth, that's probably why hryhorchuk... well, is it the composition, or the approaches, or does he need to play less romantic football, but more pragmatic? well, yes, in some matches, chornomorets really looked like a contender for the championship title, but in some matches there were failures and somewhere there was such a clear understanding that in the 80th minute, chornomorets, if the result is tied, then he is already playing for him, he is not snatching victory, like, for example, other teams, which we ... talked about above here and there, poland always tries to play for victory until the last seconds, dynamo, shakhtar kyiv, that is, with such real ambitions, but chornomorets is repelled by the philosophy that the most important thing there is not to lose, and that is already better. that is, to be a middle class and not get relegated there, you see such people, here the approach, as it were, the philosophy of the club, probably, she now answers to igorchuk, who

is also the most important thing not to be relegated, probably for now, but andriy shevchenko's ambitions have always been to win, and the battle in which he will participate, there somehow turns out to be elections without elections, because andriy shevchenko is already clear he himself confirmed that he will run for the president of the uaf, all local federations nominate him. well, as soon as his candidacy, and for me, these elections without a choice are always something very unhealthy. well, unfortunately, this is the situation now, and simply football is like a slice of what is happening in the country, and we see that in fact, wherever you look, in ukraine, this is exactly how it has been happening for the last few years, elections without elections, without alternatives, so in fact, that is , it is possible that there are some nominal candidates there, and you spoke there. they talked about luzhnoy there, they even mentioned a couple of candidates , but in fact everyone understood, everyone knew, well , you and i knew for the last year we definitely knew that andriy shevchenko would

lead the uaf, and we see that the same rybrov was, according to serhiy rybrov, just as there was no alternative, they waited there, changed and so on, but everyone knew that serhii rebrok would be the head coach, the same was true of andriy shevchenko, well, on the other hand, andriy shevchenko remains in football, that is the most important thing, there they compare him with the president, now there, who was a comedian, became the president, who didn't go there. but at the same time he remains in football, so it is probably inappropriate to compare in this way, and having the experience of both a football player and a head coach, he will now try himself precisely in the role of uaf president andriy shevchenko, for ukrainian football, i think this is a plus, because he is recognizable throughout the football world, he is influential in the whole european and football world, and for ukraine he is definitely a brand, and now he is already an ambassador, and andriy shevchenko is an adviser to everyone there, both from the president's office and from the individual president, so he is... a representative of everything, that is, the entire community of ukraine. well, i talk to football players, some coaches, and opinions are divided, someone thinks that the class, andriy shevchenko with such authority, with such

national love, he should come and still restore order, especially since in europe he will be a super diplomat, but others say that, unfortunately, shevchenko is such a sign, a showcase, and dark people will be driving, who, let's say , won't even go outside of everyone's processes, well here yes, here... another alternative comparison with vitaliy klitschko is also about the fact that he is again a visiting card there, of course, he is recognized there all over the world, and the fact that he has never been like that precisely as a manager, but andriy shevchenko was a manager, that is, the fact that he worked in the national team, he assembled a team, that is, we all understand that he was not responsible for tactics, he was not responsible for strategy, he was not responsible for physical training , but he gathered specialists who were able to do a lot for our national team, the national team began to play attractive football, football that brought... results, that is, as a manager, he showed himself precisely in the national team, in geno there was not enough squad, and there was not enough time, and perhaps he did not have such ambitions there to work as an outsider, just if

he went on his emotions like that, behaved, and then realized that it was absolutely not his, he needs full trust, which he will have, by the way, because he is completely under the control of the president's office, and they are all friends there now, therefore , i think that it should work out, the only question is, who exactly will assemble the team, we hope that his experience, intuition and... previous experience, precisely in politics, he also did not manage to show himself, maybe he should stay in football. well, our team already worked today, we are preparing for the next issues, there will be such final issues, as well as a review of our legionnaires , andrii melinovskyi was with you, i am oleksandr vashchuk, cheer for yours, for yours and see you next sunday. greetings, dear viewers, on the espresso tv channel, studio zahid program, we will analyze the most important events that

took place in the united states of america and the european union. our guests today are matthew bryza and valery chaly. now bryza will work on the espresso tv channel, ex-adviser of the united states secretary of state, former director of european and eurasian affairs at the us national security council. glory to ukraine , sir. what is happening in the world , what is happening in washington, we simply do not have time to react to extremely different and sometimes contradictory signals, on the other hand, we feel that the kremlin is triumphant, yes, they are preparing, to prolong the war, and they feel a certain weakness in decisions with side of what is called a collective measure, and we in ukraine are extremely worried, in particular, it is not only about the supply of weapons, but also about money. the ukrainian budget depends too much on american aid. the situation in washington is something completely unexpected for me. based on our

previous conversations with you. which i really always love and appreciate, this is something completely unexpected even for the washington political elite, because support for continued military and financial aid to ukraine is very strong in congress. so what happened was that a small group of extreme republicans, supporters of trump, the so-called mag group, were able to politically to blackmail president biden, saying: "okay, we know you want this help for ukraine." maybe we do too, but we won't give it the green light until you agree to what we want, which is to protect america's southern border. we are talking about the borders of ukraine and we want to protect them. yes, but let's secure the us borders first. i think it's ridiculous, irresponsible, and damaging to america's reputation in the world, but that 's our reality. dear mr. ambassador,

what signals were sent? from the kremlin to washington, and to whom, for example, does putin signal in washington besides trump, and how strongly does this affect american aid to ukraine in general? putin is very happy, he said the other day during his big press conference, which he missed last year because russia was not performing well on the battlefield. he held a big conference this year and said he was sure russia would win the war because... i think he 's wrong, and the republicans who are causing this political mess about aid to ukraine, will suffer politically, but it doesn't make ukraine any better, so this big political mess in washington is a big gift to putin, firstly because it hurts ukraine's ability to continue its offensive, and secondly because it also

undermines leadership . of the united states in the world and our ability to be the so-called leader of the free world, and this is the most shameful moment for american foreign policy that i can recall in my entire adult life. mr. ambassador, i take your predictions and your assessments extremely seriously situation, and accordingly i would ask you to answer honestly now, what do you think ukraine should expect in the near future? couple of months from the united states, does mr. biden have a plan b? biden has no plan b. what he needs to do, and i hope he does, is to agree to what the republican extremes want, which is to change his administration's immigration policy on the southern border of the united states with mexico and allocate more money to the southern border. i am not

pessimistic. as to whether help would come ukraine or not. i am concerned about the timing, as the negotiations will continue for several weeks. knowing president biden, i think that in the end, he will agree to such political blackmail and give the republicans what they demand in terms of protecting the us border with mexico in order to get this help for ukraine. this is a terrible precedent in american domestic and foreign policy. but i think biden in the end. will give in and ukraine will receive this money, the only question is when it will happen. yes, mr. ambassador, they also come from the other side rather alarming signals, in particular, it is about various military-political-expert environments, which say that ukraine should prepare for deep, deeply echeloned defense. this means that it is possible that we will not receive extremely important offensive types of weapons, additional, yes, for

which we very much hoped. well, and accordingly, we also understand from the other side that the united states, well, maybe does not want to raise the degree of escalation, maybe certain consultations took place in third countries, maybe with the help of viktor orban, maybe with with the help of chinese comrades, yes, well, where was it said, for example, that the quick allocation of f-16 to ukraine can fundamentally change the situation. i don't think the biden administration cares at all about what the chinese say. or viktor orbán, orbán is generally disliked in washington because what he does is clearly pro-russian. who knows what kind of corrupt connections are behind this, but he clearly does not enjoy the trust of washington. in a way, even worse for my country, what is happening is this just a sophisticated political case of blackmail by the extreme wing.
