“The result of the match between the Russian national team and the Kenyan team was disappointing” – Chanov

Former Soviet football player Vyacheslav Chanov said that he was upset by the result of the friendly match of the Russian national team against the Kenyan team.

The Russian team on Monday played a draw with the Kenyan team in Antalya, Turkey, with a score of 2:2. Anthony Akumu (16th minute) and Masoud Juma (36th minute) scored for the Kenyans. The Russians scored goals from Alexander Sobolev (8) and substitute Ivan Oblyakov (89).

— The Russian team’s result in the match with Kenya was disappointing. You can’t go out and play in this mood. The start was too slow, then the substitutions increased the speed of the game. There were mistakes in defense that such experienced players should not make. I think the lack of the right attitude and rotation affected the game. But a change in lineup is a necessary thing when a team is getting used to things.

There is no need to sprinkle ashes on your head, because the coaching staff still reviews the players. There are fewer candidates, and the main body appears. This makes me happy,” Chanov was quoted as saying by “Championship.”
