RPL President: Russia is not a semi-finished product. Pizza can be frozen, but the national team cannot
President of the Russian Premier League Alexander Alaev announced the need for friendly matches of the Russian national team.
“Friendly matches are needed – 100%. Even such nondescript matches, as with Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan, which you want to quickly forget. I give everyone an example that the Russian team is not a semi-finished product. Pizza can be put in the freezer and frozen, and then warmed up and eaten with friends. Team – no. She The team must live – this is a special microorganism.
Now reaching an agreement with Tajikistan, not to mention Uzbekistan, is the same as reaching an agreement with Argentina or Brazil a couple of years ago. This is the hardest story, the hardest illnesses – both commercial, and organizational, and politically. However, these matches are needed. If we say that the lost two hours, then I also did not like the game.
At the same time, I understand what Karpin is doing – he is building a new team. How many people were from the applications for the World Cup at this training camp? One is Daler Kuzyaev. How many newbies has Karpin tried? 19. Obviously, they want a bright game, a result, so that everyone’s eyes would burn. But they didn’t succeed. However, I understand what Karpin is doing, ”Salavat Murtazin, correspondent of the Championship, conveys the words of Alaev.
