The Kazakhstan Football Federation (KFF) is negotiating a friendly match between the national teams of Russia and Kazakhstan, while the parties have not reached an agreement on the date of the game, KFF Secretary General Olzhas Abrayev said.
– There was no refusal on our part, especially, as some media write, for political reasons. We are negotiating with the RFU on organizing a friendly match, but so far the Russian side is not satisfied with the November 16 date proposed by us. Consultations are underway, – SportRadar.kz quotes Abrayev.
On September 24, the Russian national team will play a control match with the Kyrgyz team in Bishkek. The Football Union of Bosnia and Herzegovina previously announced that the friendly match Russia – Bosnia and Herzegovina will be held on November 19 in St. Petersburg. Also in November, the team of Valery Karpin has one more game scheduled.
Russian clubs and teams have been suspended from participation in tournaments under the auspices of FIFA and UEFA due to the situation in Ukraine.
