The coach of the national football team of Moldova Igor Dobrovolski has big troubles before the encounter with Georgia, of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. He cannot count on the services of Ionita, Armas, Cebotaru, Cojocari, and Dedov, IPN reports.

Cebotaru, Ionita and Armas sustained injuries, while Cojocari and Dedov were suspended for this Sunday’s match. “There are other footballers who can play for the national team. We cannot put off the match because of absences,” Igor Dobrovolski told a news conference. ”It will be a very difficult match, but we are decided to achieve a good result,” said halfback Alexandru Gatcan.

The national football team of Moldova ranks last in the group after suffering three defeats, to Wales, Serbia, and Ireland. Georgia obtained one point after drawing with Wales in Cardiff. The match between Georgia and Moldova is played in Georgia on November 12, starting at 7pm.
