Serhiy Rebrov is the one who performed for the Yellow-Blues in butting matches in 1997, 1999 and 2001.
- I recall those games rarely, - tells 39-year-old Rebrov. – We faced reversal of fortune. Anyway there’s no use thinking about that now.
- Ukraine have never defeated France…
- I don’t think that players analyze statistics. Chances are equal. Our performers must do their best on the pitch.
- What can help Ukraine win?
- We have good national team. Attacking players have achieved mutual understanding. Defenders act confidently.
- Can Tymoshchuk, who lacks game practice, make himself useful for the national team?
- He is a very experienced player. I think his wisdom can help Ukraine.
- France is Michel Platini’s motherland. They often recall Thierry Henry’s hand ball in playoffs against Ireland, which wasn’t noticed by referee…
- It was a really hidden move by Henry. Everyone considered him to be a decent person, but he isn’t. Anyway I don’t think that Platini factor will influence the game.
- Maybe Andriy Yarmolenko should try his hand in one of European top leagues if Ukraine don’t qualify for the World Cup?
- Ukrainian Premier League is of good level. First of all Andriy wants to win a serious trophy with Dynamo.
