I Won't Shake Hands Again. How Journalist Vatsko Quarreled with Coach Vernidub.

Journalist Viktor Vatsko has decided not to extend his hand to former coach of the Kryvbas football club Yuriy Vernidub anymore. This was reported by 'Glavkom'.

After the game, Vernidub gave a rather sharp response to journalist Vatsko, who claimed that other UPL clubs had refused the 59-year-old coach employment.

'I really played my last match with Kryvbas. The future? Ask Vatsko, he knows everything. I have been rejected everywhere. I was turned down by 'LNZ' and 'Polissya'. Perhaps I'll try at 'Karpaty' or somewhere else,' - Vernidub stated.

He also emphasized that he will never extend his hand to Vatsko again.

'Viktor, I am very grateful. You are an incredible person, but I know where all this comes from. You are a person of great character, but after this, I will never shake your hand in life again,' - Vernidub noted.

Vatsko, who was present in the studio during the interview, immediately responded to the coach.

'I do not need your hand. I will find your phone number right now, and you will be in my black list. I also don't need you after this. If the truth scares you - that's your problem. Trying to provoke with the truth - that's not a problem. If you just don't want to extend your hand - my hands will be cleaner,' - Vatsko reacted.

We also remind you that 'Polissya' player Oleksandr Andriyevskyi has filed a lawsuit against journalist Ihor Burbas.

The case will be considered in the Kyiv-Sviatoshyn District Court of Kyiv Oblast starting September 10.

Earlier, Andriyevskyi denied information that Burbas claimed about his possible transfer to 'LNZ', but he decided to play for 'Polissya'.
