Andriy Shakhov: "Should Rebrov be fired? No, no and no again!"

Football journalist and expert Andriy Shakhov answered whether Serhiy Rebrov should be dismissed after two opening defeats in the Nations League.

- No, no and no again! For me, the Nations League is a completely artificial tournament, which is only slightly more important than friendly matches. But even if it were, say, a qualifying tournament, my opinion would still not change. I see what the national team is playing, it creates chances that are more numerous than the opponent's in the game against Albania and the game against the Czech Republic, it attacks dangerously and in a variety of ways. In addition, in my opinion, Rebrov is currently the best Ukrainian coach, who has proven his skills not only at Dynamo but also abroad.

Ultimately, the main task of the national team in the near future is to qualify for the World Cup. And everything is dedicated to it, including these semi-official matches in the League of Nations. Has the team moved even one step away from fulfilling this task? Therefore, I repeat, I am in favor of Rebrov continuing to manage our national team," Shakhov said.
