Oleksandr Antonenko pleased with Obolon's performance in friendly against Kudrivka

Obolon head coach Oleksandr Antonenko shared his thoughts following the friendly match victory over Kudrivka, which saw goals from Taras Lyakh and Andriy Lomnytskyi secure the win.

Certainly, we can be satisfied with the victory. All players received an optimal workload. Today, the coaching staff gave more playing time to those who play less in the league. Oleksandr Antonenko

The manager highlighted that these matches are vital for maintaining team fitness. Particular focus was placed on players returning from injuries and those who have not yet reached their peak condition. These friendlies provide a necessary opportunity for them to gain match rhythm ahead of upcoming UPL fixtures.

Antonenko also noted that the team has been actively working on set-pieces in training, which paid off during the friendly. Obolon currently sits 15th in the Ukrainian Premier League table after seven matches.
