Former Khimki coach Sergey Yuran assessed the final application of the Russian national team for the November training camp, which included seven players with no experience of playing for the main team.
For the first time, Ilya Agapov (Nizhny Novgorod), Ruslan Litvinov and Anton Zinkovsky (both Spartak), Alexander Soldatenkov and Sergey Pinyaev (both Wings of the Soviets), Vladimir Sychevoi (Orenburg) and Lechi Sadulaev (“Akhmat”).
– There are no surprises. Calling newbies is a normal process. The kids have a chance to prove themselves. Now we need to watch all the guys who more or less show themselves in the RPL and in the Cup. Now Russia is out of the qualifiers for the Euro, so there is time to look at young players for the future, – said Yuran “Championship”.
During the training camp, the national team will play with Tajikistan on November 17, and on November 20 – with Uzbekistan. Both matches will be shown by the Match TV channel.
