“Would beat 6-0, would say:“ Whom did you beat? Karpin – about the victory over the team of Kyrgyzstan

The head coach of the Russian national team Valery Karpin commented on the victory over the Kyrgyz in a friendly match.

The meeting in Bishkek ended with the victory of Russian football players with a score of 2:1 thanks to the goals of Alexander Sobolev and Daniil Utkin.

– I liked Kyrgyzstan, they knew how to play – fast players, they quickly played forward. I don’t have a critical mood, many things didn’t work out. We looked at the players who stand out in the Russian championship. Some were better, some worse. Satisfied with the newbies. There are flaws in the game, but it’s understandable.

Rarely do I mention a player in public. For myself, I did it. I won’t name names. Analysis of the match is not planned. There is no point in gathering until the next gathering.

What do you say to the critics?

– You don’t have to say anything. They were, are and will be. They would beat 6:0, they would say: “Whom did you beat?” It was the same with Cyprus. The task was to look at the players, to work with those who were not there before, to remember those who were before.

– What is the goal of the players when there are no official matches?

— Get into the Russian team. The best in Russia at the moment are invited there. But there are sometimes limitations.

– The RFU can go to the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). How do you react to such conversations?

– I don’t look at all, I prefer not to fill my head with questions that do not depend on me. At the moment, nothing is clear, – quotes the words of Karpin “Match TV”.
