Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Georgiy Sudakov and the Ukraine national team shared his impressions of working in the national team under his current and former mentors - Serhiy Rebrov and Andriy Shevchenko respectively.

Andriy Shevchenko is probably more reserved. As far as I remember, his assistants on the coaching staff worked more in the training process, and he himself made some additions or emphasised on certain details.
My role in the national team under these two coaches? Under Shevchenko they told me something, showed me something, but I understood that I was not the main goal of the head coach. Yes, sometimes he told me something, showed me something, but, in principle, I do not refuse from my words that Andriy Mykolaevych did not teach me much in the national team. However, again, this is because at that time I was not treated as a main squad player.
But I feel trust from Sergei Rebrov. When you play all the matches in the squad, almost without substitutions, then, of course, you realise that you are trusted. And I hope that I justify this trust," Sudakov said in an interview with Youtube channel SpottArena.
