“I'm reading all the crap that They wrote to me and my family after yesterday's game. Fortunately or unfortunately, we are no longer allowed to make mistakes in the opponent's half of the field. I insist: for losing the ball in the rival field, I repeat, people wish you death and that of your family, making you feel guilty for the defeat. Unfortunately we don't have many suitable fans, “he wrote on his Instagram account (@ zinchenko_96).

Zinchenko lost possession in the German midfield, Goretzka took the ball and found Leroy Sané, who scored the goal. Ukraine lost 3-1 to the Germans, who are first in the group.
