Jozsef Sabo: "Let them disqualify us, but we can't play with the Belarusians!

Former head coach of Dynamo and the Ukrainian national team Jozsef Sabo commented on the decision of the Ministry of Youth and Sports to ban the Ukrainian national teams to participate in tournaments in which Russians and Belarusians are represented.

- I think that the Ministry of Youth and Sports has made the right decision, I support it. How could UEFA allow Belarus to participate in the competitions? It's not our problem, but theirs. Belarus and Russia must be disqualified from everything! They are at war against us. I believe that if Belarus is going to play in the qualifying for Euro 2024, we should not participate there! Lukashenko and his henchmen are as fucked up and scum as the Russians. I don't mean all Belarusians, but those who are fighting against us. Lukashenko gave Belarus to Russia. Belarus no longer exists, Russia-2 is there.

It turns out that Russia-2 participates in the competition. Wait, soon the Russian players will adopt Belarusian citizenship and they will play in peace. They're all cunning, inventing every way to get around the ban. Let them disqualify us, but it's better to play with the Belarusians in one tournament! Then we'll play friendly matches. I even told my children and grandchildren: "As long as I am alive, you will never be friends with Russians and Belarusians!" We need to make a fuss in Europe and enlist the support of EU countries. Only Europe can help us! There is no hope for the IOC, FIFA and UEFA! All the corrupt people who sell out for the money of Gazprom are sitting there.

. Of course, if the Ukraine national team won`t take part in international tournaments, Rebrov won`t go there. What will he do here then? But if we are going to play, I want to see Rebrov in the head of our team. We don`t need a foreigner. Rebrov has proved that he is a qualified coach and he didn`t come from the street. But if we get out of Euro qualification, Rebrov is not worth inviting", Sabo told FanDay.
