Great interview with Ukrainian fagivts.

On the 14th, Prazia team of Ukraine will host the team of Pivnichnaya Macedonia as part of the qualifying match for Euro 2024. In advance, the head coach of the team, Sergey Rebrov, spoke with Radio Liberty.

About those who experienced the beginning of a full-scale invasion:.

" This was no longer possible for everyone. Trying to turn to Ukraine, but in exchange for a contract.

We tried to help our country in every way we could."

" It was very important for me at this hour to be with the Ukrainians, with my people. Since it is so possible to coach the National Assembly of Ukraine, it is a great honor for me, for any fakhiv. That’s why I haven’t thought about this proposition.” About training in times of extreme anxiety:.

" It’s mellow, melodious, for these fighters, for these defenders of Ukraine, who are at once “at zero”. It's so easy.

We must do everything for Ukraine, try to help Ukraine. Those who are timid are very effective and very important. And although we, unfortunately, cannot play in Ukraine, we feel the support of the Ukrainians through, no matter where we were. Chi in Poland, chi, like at the same time, in the Czech Republic. This is a very big encouragement"

" And I respect that the decision to allow the Russians to be corrupted is beyond comprehension both for us and for all of Europe. Ale tserіshennaya UEFA. We will protest against you.

There are already a lot of countries that others have already been inspired by and will continue to be inspired by. Because you can’t be robotic like that.

Once we show how many Ukrainian children suffered as a result of Russian aggression, this is a shocking number. And the stench now seems to be about Russian children who suffered innocently through the war."

" The world and Europe have a lot of people to know and respect people who have earned respect in sports. That's why these names are well known.

And I don’t know who is more popular – politicians or athletes, who have earned everything for their country. I never said that sport is politics.

It is very important that if there is a war, then the sport is no longer concerned with politics. Everyone is to blame and stand up to the aggressor."

"

It's war now. That's why the skin needs to be cleaned, there's a stink: there's a stink with Ukraine and there's a stink there with the Russians? You can't be in the middle, I'm neutral, I'm political. There is no such thing.

Tymoshchuk turning the other side.

How many people have suffered, children and how many people have left Ukraine through the Russians. There is no time, as I said, in the middle. You are guilty of virishity, children. You believe that you are there"

" All matches between Dynamo and Spartak and Ukraine and Russia were based on principles.

I still remember the excitement that the Russians created.

I remember this game, when we played, when Andriy Shevchenko scored a goal, the Russians created this excitement.

When we played in Kiev, in Ukraine, everyone watched this match, but the Ukrainians had a different understanding of what. We respected them. Well, we were trying to win this match, because we respected that Ukraine is strong."

" Nowadays it seems that the championship is even weak.

So, now it’s a very great influx of the Gravits from Europe and the Ukrainian Championship, and here’s a great chance for young Ukrainian Gravits, who were immediately denied the chance to make a name for themselves. And I respect that we have a great championship.

And I will always follow him, because I am the coach of the national team and because it really matters.

I'm singing that everything will turn around for us. And our championship will be richly enriched."
