Head coach of the Ukrainian national team Sergey Rebrov commented on the conflict Mikhail Mudryk and Nikolai Shaparenkowho allegedly did not share the 10th number in the national team:
“Conflict for the tenth number? Who said that? You always comment on rumors. “We heard there.” There was no conflict at all. Yes, Mikhail missed the game, Nikolay took this number, what’s the problem?
Why does everyone spread some rumors and always think that some atmosphere is not the same? What happened? I don’t understand. Who said that there is some conflict or something? Why do you think that for the players of the national team of Ukraine this is on the first plan? They talked, asked, these are normal things. This is what professional players who are not 15 years old do.”
