Argentinian midfielder “Orenburg” Lucas Vera admitted to Metaratings.ru that he was surprised by the strong growth of Russian football players.
The Argentine moved to Orenburg from Lanus in 2022.
— What are the main stereotypes about Russia in Latin America?
– War, cold and problems of socialization. Yes, Russians are more serious guys, but when they relax, they are funny in their own way.
– It seems to me that in Orenburg there is a very cool atmosphere in the team, also thanks to this you have achieved good results in the season. Who deserves in such an atmosphere in the team?
– Yes, it’s true. Every day the atmosphere in the club becomes even more positive thanks to Latin Americans and Russians. Probably, we are more responsible for the mood, because we are always together. The Russians are also adapting, but the Argentinians are setting the tone.
– And among the Russians, who is the most reckless?
Everyone is very calm. There are no bad guys on the team. But I should think about itlaughing). The Russian guys are a bit slower and we are hyper all the time.
– It seems that this mood also comes from the head coach.
– Yes, Marcel does not bother us in this sense. There is no, shall we say, student control. We can afford music, in the morning everyone is in a good mood, which everyone shares. And this applies to all players on the team. True, the Russians have their own way even in this matter, but in the end everyone is comfortable.
In general, Russian footballers surprised me! They are all over 1.90m tall (Vera’s height is 1.64m – approximately). I’m shocked! Is it normal for them to be above 1.90? I can’t buy normal clothes here,” Vera said.
The 26-year-old has made 29 appearances this season, scoring 1 goal and providing 6 assists.
Orenburg scored 43 points and sits eighth in the WORLD RPL rankings. In the final round, Urals will face Dynamo at home on June 3.
