Vice-President of the All-Russian Volleyball Federation (VVF) Gennady Shipulin believes that the World Championship is not a full-fledged tournament without the participation of the Russian team in it.
– Strong teams of France, Serbia flew out. Even Ukraine, which played well, was also eliminated. Championship is good. Yesterday I watched the match Slovenia – Ukraine. A full hall, a wonderful atmosphere, Ukraine played well. They almost didn’t have enough. The strongest teams remained.
Who will be the champion? I don’t know, but I like Italians. Unfortunately, with tears in my eyes I tell you that the World Cup was not held in Russia. Such colossal preparation, we have such palaces. The country was waiting like the main holiday. Without Russia, this is not the same tournament. God grant that Russia returns to the sports arenas of the world in all sports. I believe it will happen. Without Russia, this is not the same quality, and all athletes in the world understand this. And the grandfathers who rule Europe do not understand this and will not understand, – quotes the words of Shipulin “Championship”.
The volleyball world championship takes place in Poland and Slovenia from August 26 to September 11.
