Athletistic / Basketball. Famous Russian sports journalist Dmitry Guberniev spoke about the big scandal involving the participation of the Colombian basketball team in the 2024 Friendship Cup tournament in Perm. On August 22, the Colombian Basketball Federation announced that it would not send the national team to the pre-season tournament in Russia, but representatives of the Russian Basketball Federation (RFB) published a document from which it was clear that the Colombians were aware of what was happening.
“Oh, Colombia was lying… But we still don’t need such strange teams!” — Guberniev wrote on his Telegram channel.
Parma, along with the national teams of Russia, Colombia and Venezuela, were invited to the 2024 Friendship Cup. On August 21, Parma from Perm defeated the Colombian team with a score of 155:53. As a result, due to a major scandal, the match between the Russian national team and Colombia at the 2024 Friendship Cup was canceled. At the same time, the Russians will hold two meetings with the Venezuelan national team, and the Colombians will play twice with the Parma youth team.
