The former head coach of Lokomotiv and the Russian national team, Yuri Semin, considers it important to hold friendly matches for the national team in the absence of international tournaments.
On November 17, the Russian team will play with the team of Tajikistan, on November 20 – with the national team of Uzbekistan.
– For Tajikistan, the arrival of the Russian team is a big event. There will be a football holiday, a full stadium will gather. The most important thing is that our team continues to play. It is important that the national team does not cease to exist, otherwise we will fall far behind the others.
Setting the players up for a friendly match? If someone comes out to play without a desire, then Karpin will quickly figure it out, ”Sport24 quotes Semin.
