Bulykin spoke out against a possible match between the Russian national team and the RPL legionnaires team

Former striker of the Russian national team, Lokomotiv and Dynamo Dmitry Bulykin expressed his opinion on how the national team should look for partners for friendly matches.

– You can and should look for rivals all over the world. Whoever agrees, with that and hold the match. Do not play with the second squad or with the legionnaires’ team. I think that there is no point in such sparring. We need a good international friendly meeting. And who will agree, this is the second question. I think there will be a lot of people who want to. It all depends on how much money to offer for it – quotes Bulykin Vprognoze.ru.

On the eve of the Football Union of Bosnia and Herzegovina canceled a friendly match against Russia. The meeting was to take place on November 19 in St. Petersburg. However, its holding caused controversy among the Bosnian football community. In particular, Bosnian team captain Edin Dzeko and leading midfielder Miralem Pjanic spoke out against such an initiative. As a result, the Football Union of Bosnia and Herzegovina decided to postpone the match to the future.

On November 17, the Russian team will meet with Tajikistan in Dushanbe.
