The Afghan footballer doubted that the Russian team would dominate the Asian Confederation

national soccer player Afghanistan Sharif Muhammad does not believe that Russian teams and clubs will dominate the field if the country moves to the UEFA Asian Confederation.

– I can not say that the team Russia will dominate the Asian confederation. First, there are strong teams like Iran, Qatar, Japan, Korea and Australia. I think they will confirm their level at the world championships. As for the clubs, they are very good in Asia too. The championships of Japan and Qatar have a very high level, there are some good teams in Saudi Arabia. Of course, against their background, some Russian giants, for example, Zenit, will be able to show decent football, but not a fact.

Secondly, teams and national teams will have to get used to the peculiarities of local football. As I said, Asian football is different from others. Russian players can be strongly affected by long flights and weather. And this is the most problematic thing they can face. Your football players in Asia will “burn out”, and Asians in Russia will “freeze” (laughs), Muhammad is quoted by Metaratings.ru.

FIFA and UEFA have suspended Russian clubs and national teams from international competitions due to the situation in Ukraine. Earlier, the media raised the possibility of a transition of Russian football from Europe to Asia.
