Serhii Rebrov: "As a footballer, I was like Messi"

Head coach of the Ukrainian national team Serhii Rebrov answered several questions about his playing and coaching career.

- What did footballer Rebrov like best: scoring or assisting?

- To assist.

- The strongest footballer you've ever played with?

- Probably only Andriy Shevchenko, with him I really felt very confident.

- Which of the modern stars does footballer Rebrov look like?

- Messi (laughs).

- What does coach Rebrov like better: a 1-0 win or a 4-3 win?

- I like balance, so that there is both reliability in defence and efficiency in attack.

- What does Rebrov like better now: working on theory or training?

- Both. It is important. There are not many aspects of football, and you have to be the best in all of them.

- Which of today's stars would you take to the Ukrainian national team now?

- Messi.
