"We are aware of reports of COVID cases in the Ukraine squad, but we are just focused on ourselves and following all of the right protocols. We have stayed in regular contact with our medical team and the HSE to ensure that all players & staff remain disciplined in this process and it is great that we have returned all negative results.
"The qualifying campaign has gone well so far for us and we have improved along the way, however this is now when it matters most. We need to get a positive outcome from Friday's game to keep the dream alive of qualifying for the European Championships in 2022."
