Rebrov: Now I am setting up the players in such a way that they concentrate on their clubs and through games prepare for the meeting with Bosnia

Head coach Ukrainian national team Sergey Rebrov spoke about the preparation of the coaching staff for the match with Bosnia and Herzegovina in the semi-finals of the qualifying playoffs European Championship 2024.

“I hope that by then all the players will return without injury. Now we are watching a lot of videos with assistants, looking at the players. Vicente and I are going to go to Turkey in January to look at the collections and future candidates. Some teams will train in Ukraine – we will visit there too.”

“It’s very important for me to move from match to match. There is no need to get ahead of yourself now and think about what will happen in a few months. Now I am setting up the players in such a way that they concentrate on their clubs and through the games prepare for the meeting with Bosnia. If you want to win, you have to think about your game while respecting your opponent.”

“They changed the coach. In recent matches, this coach used many players in each position, so it is difficult to name their optimal composition. I think Pjanic and Dzeko are very important players for the Bosnians. Quite a good level of youth. When the time comes, it is very important that the players have enough practice before the big matches.”

The Ukrainian national team will play away against Bosnia and Herzegovina on March 21, 2024 in the city of Zenica, at the Bilino Pole stadium. If successful, Rebrov’s team will meet with the winner of the Israel-Iceland confrontation. The final match will be a “home” match for the blue-yellows and will take place on March 26.

Euro 2024 will take place in Germany from June 14 to July 14, 2024. The matches of the European Championship will be held in arenas in Berlin, Cologne, Dortmund, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Gelsenkirchen, Hamburg, Leipzig, Munich and Stuttgart.
