Former player of the Russian national team Vladimir Granat considers the words of Andrei Kanchelskis in an interview with Match TV about the contractual nature of matches involving the Russian national team at the 2018 home World Cup as envy or anger.
The ex-player of Manchester United and the Russian national team, in an interview with Match TV, spoke about “strange moments” in the victory of the Russian team over Spain (1:1, 4:3) in the 1/8 finals of the 2018 World Cup. Garnet was in the application of the Russian national team for the 2018 World Cup and took part in the match against Spain.
– In the match with Spain, our guys made a holiday for the whole country. Now, at a time like this, to say so is amazing! I have no words.
Perhaps he witnessed this bribery and therefore speaks so confidently about it. Maybe it’s envy or anger. I can’t compare his words to anything else. It is hard to imagine the bribery of international matches, where teams of different levels from all over the world play football, Granat told Sport24.
