Head coach of the national team of Ukraine Serhiy Rebrov the results of the match of the 1st round of the group stage of Euro 2024 in group "E" with the national team of Romania (0:3), which took place today, June 17, in Munich.
Sergei Rebrov- I think it was a surprise to everyone. This is the Euros. I always say: if we want to achieve something at the European Championship, each player must show the maximum. Unfortunately, this was not the case, but this is the first game. We will be more serious and thoroughly prepare for the next one.
- Why did Romania won?
- I do not think that we did not want to score. And the first minutes before the conceded goal we controlled the game. But there are mistakes that we make, and there were. I think we were not aggressive enough in attack, we did not create chances.
- What should we say to the national team players in this situation?
- They have to bring themselves back. We understand that this is not just one game. Yes, we made a lot of mistakes. We need to carefully analyze this match, show the players and prepare for the next game.
I always say: the players are very grateful to those who defend our country. Before the game I told the players that we play for them, that we must show the spirit of Ukrainians. Unfortunately, this was the result. I am sure that for the next game we will have a different attitude.
