Defender CSKA Vladimir Karpenko who received a call-up to the Russian national team for the first time, told that he was very pleased with the invitation to the national team and was looking forward to his first match at the international level.
The Russian national team will face the teams of Tunisia and Libya within the framework of the Friendship Cup. The tournament will take place in Moscow from November 22 to 24. On November 22, Zoran Lukic’s team will meet Tunisia, and on November 24 Libya.
— It was very nice to receive a call to the national team. In addition, this is my first call-up to the national team. I want to justify the trust of the technical staff and prove myself as a member of the national team. Little is known about the national teams of Libya and Tunisia, but I think the coaches will analyze their matches and familiarize us with their strengths and weaknesses.
— Matches with African teams are a new experience for our team. Maybe it’s interesting?
— For me personally, it is always interesting to play any match at the international level. It will be the first time that I have this international experience, it is very important. So we will prepare,” Karpenko told .
