Renowned Ukrainian coach Yuriy Virt talks about his expectations of the Ukrainian national team under Serhiy Rebrov.
Yuriy Wirth"I liked the first results. There are two victories in the Euro 2024 qualifiers (over Northern Macedonia - 3: 2 and Malta - 1: 0, - ed.), which give us hope that we can catch on, join the fight for first or second place in the group. The games were tough. We managed to turn the tide in the game with North Macedonia. I'm sure there was a serious conversation after 0-2 at half-time.
Serhiy Stanislavovych didn't have much time for the players to learn about his demands. But there are also questions to the players. Because the team cannot show one game in the first half and a completely different one in the second half.
The players will get used to Rebrov's demands. I think they will be able to compete with England and Italy, although it will be very difficult. And if they do take first or second place, it will be a small feat," Ukrainian Football quoted Wirth as saying.
