A large number of goalkeepers in the Russian national football team is due to the fact that the team does not have a 100% first number, according to the former goalkeeper of the national team Ruslan Nigmatullin.
On March 6, Valery Karpin named the extended list of the Russian national team for the March gathering of 41 people. There are six goalkeepers among all the players: Soslan Dzhanaev, Sergey Pesyakov, Ilya Pomazun, Matvey Safonov, Alexander Selikhov, Anton Shunin.
– Such a large number of goalkeepers in the national team is due to the fact that there is no first one hundred percent number, the composition is now floating. I treat all goalkeepers with respect, especially experienced ones, but the policy in the national team is work for the future. It should also apply to goalkeepers.
The national team, when it plays in official matches, should be in order. Goalkeepers, who are on average 35 years old, will be difficult to qualify for a place in the starting lineup by this time. The guys are called just for these matches, so that there is a reliable number one, but, of course, the result is also important. On the other hand, it is sad that young goalkeepers do not make themselves known. This speaks of a crisis of young goalkeepers, with whom it is difficult to create the backbone of the Russian national team.
Mikhail Kerzhakov? He is already old, he could be called up as the fourth age goalkeeper.
Haykin’s non-summon? Perhaps, for now, they don’t want to pull him out of Bristol. We need to look for our resources, I like the game of Lomaev from Krylya Sovetov, but at the end of the first part of the season he lost his place in the starting lineup. Safonov has something to work on. It will be clear by the season, because the goalkeeper in the national team is stability in the club. When stability comes to one of the candidates, he will be the main one,” Nigmatullin told Metaratings.ru.
The training camp of the Russian national team will be held from 19 to 28 March in Novogorsk. Earlier, the communications service of the RFU told Match TV that the RFU and the Iranian Football Federation agreed on the date of the friendly match of national teams on March 23 in Tehran.
Watch live broadcasts of matches of the Russian national football team on the Match TV federal channel and the thematic channels of the holding, as well as on matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru websites.

The scorer of the brace against Chelsea is an Aston Villa player. Ollie Watkins appointed head coach of the team Unai Emery tactical genius. Watkins’ comment is quoted by the BBC in reference to Sky Sports.
The meeting of the 18th round of the English championship between Aston Villa and Chelsea from London ended with a strong victory for the Birmingham team with a score of 2:1.
“He changed tactics because Chelsea played man-marking, but he had an extra central defender when we played long balls. When I came on in the second half, he put Jadon Sancho and Morgan Rodgers on the wing and put Youri Tielemans in the No. 10 position, so we had an extra player. He’s a tactical genius,” Watkins said.
“Amazing victory. For me personally, to go on the pitch and score two goals is a fantastic feeling, but to continue that streak and come here to such a difficult place and beat Chelsea is just incredible,” he added.
