Kryvbas head coach Yurii Vernydub expressed his opinion on the chances of the Ukrainian national team to qualify for the finals of Euro 2024.
Yuriy Vernydub (photo: gettyimages.com)- What are the chances of our team to qualify for Euro 2024?
- We must definitely be at the Euros, I don't even consider other options. I would like to wish our national team to win the match against Bosnia and Herzegovina, and then the winner of the Israel-Iceland match. There was some kind of accident in the match against Italy.
In my opinion, the penalty on Mudryk was a good one. Whether they would have scored an eleven-metre penalty or not is another matter, but the referee made a mistake. I want our team to prove with their game that they deserve to be at the Euros because of this injustice.
- UEFA President Ceferin has repeatedly hinted that they don't really want to see Ukraine at the Euros. How would you comment on his statement?
- I can't understand this man. Recently, Ceferin said that he felt sorry for Russian footballers and constantly hints at the return of Russian teams to European competitions. Let him come to Ukraine and see what is happening here. Let him see how Russian fascists are destroying civilian infrastructure and killing innocent people.
It seems to me that UEFA has people who do not understand the obvious. But, no matter what, we are still stronger and, sooner or later, we will win. Ukrainians will be a free people, not a yoke.
