Kryvbas continues its fruitful preparation for the second part of the season in Spain, and next is the fifth friendly match, against the English Brentford B – the double of the club of the same name from the Premier League.
Brentford was founded in 1889. The Club’s main team has been playing in the elite of English football since the 2021/22 season, and is a solid middle-class team. As for the second team of the “beekeepers”, it plays in the PDL, a youth domestic tournament, and currently occupies 4th place in the 2025\2026 season.
As for the squad, it is mostly local footballers. We should note many players with dual citizenship: Ireland\Nigeria, England\Italy, Lithuania\England, England\Jamaica and so on. The head coach is 42-year-old specialist Sam Saunders. The team was founded in 2016; average age – 20.2 years.
Today's opponents met a year ago, here in Spain, and then we confidently won – 6:1 (Kozhushko, Sosa, Bizimana, Zaderaka, Kuzyk, Kozhushko - Laidlaw).
It should be noted that before this sparring, the Kryvyi Rih team had already held four friendly matches: Midtjylland Denmark – 0:3, Aarhus Denmark – 2:4, Daejeon Citizen South Korea – 3:3, Tianjin Tiger China – 3:0.
