The away match for the blue-yellows will take place on March 21 in the city of Zenica at the Bilino Pole stadium.
Team coach Ukraine Sergey Rebrov commented on the upcoming match with Bosnia and Herzegovina in the semi-finals of the playoffs for the 2024 European Championship.
“Fifth place in the group is not what the Bosnians deserved. Now the team, it seems, has a third coach in a year, he was doing a rotation. We watched many matches of the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team. Who will play against us? In Bosnia, most of the footballers play in Europe, only one plays in Bosnia. This is a tough team that we have to be ready for.”
“We have to think about ourselves. If we don’t show some game, there’s no need to talk too much about the opponent. This is a serious opponent and we are preparing properly for this game. Being a favorite in the match with Bosnia doesn’t bother me. The main thing is that he doesn’t interfere with the players.”
“I remember when Italy were favourites, we had to win the match in the last minute. The game can turn out differently. Like yesterday, when Dynamo received a penalty in the last minute. We need to think about ourselves and prepare well. First of all, mentally.”
“These matches will decide the fate of our country at the Euro. But on the other hand, we have experience in such games. This is not the first time for football players. I’m sure they’re ready. We will play away – it’s always difficult. Now many players with experience of playing on the international stage have been called up. I have confidence in these players.”
Today the application of the Ukrainian national team for the March playoff matches of the selection for the European Championship 2024 was published. In total, blue-yellow coach Sergei Rebrov called up 26 players.
