Athletic Director of the Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) Frank Vercauteren said that the question of a possible friendly match with Russian team is very sensitive.
The appointment of a specialist became known on Wednesday. Verkauteren served as interim head coach of the Belgian national team in 2009, and from 2014 to 2016 he led the Samara wings of the Soviets.
– Is a friendly match between the national teams of Russia and Belgium possible in the future?
“Unfortunately, I can’t say anything about it. The decision is made by other people. It’s quite a poignant moment. I’m trying to look more at the sporting side, the things that are available to me. This is definitely not my decision, – Metaratings.ru quotes Verkauteren.
In February 2022, FIFA and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) suspended Russian clubs and teams from participating in competitions under their auspices.
The Russian football season will resume on February 22 with the matches of the FONBET Russian Cup. On March 3, the WORLD RPL draw will continue. Watch live broadcasts of the matches of the RPL and the Cup of the country on the federal channel and the thematic channels of the holding, as well as on the sites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
