Olympic football champion Viktor Losev On the air of the program “All about the main thing” on MATCH PRIME, he spoke about the emotions of Brazilians after the defeat of the USSR national team in the final of the 1988 Games against the national team of the USSR.
Viktor Losev was captain of the Soviet team at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. In the final of the football tournament, the USSR national team defeated Brazil with a score of 2:1 (in overtime).
— When we arrived in the final, we saw that the Brazilians were already leaving in such a state of mind that all they had to do was hang up their medals. Laughter, fun, cameras filming against the backdrop of the stadium, where, as they believed, the triumph was supposed to take place. This atmosphere encouraged us a little more, and our coach Anatoly Fedorovich [Бышовец] We emphasized in the locker room that the Brazilians no longer consider us an opponent.
– So, they cried?
– They cried! And very seriously! We came to exchange T-shirts after the match. They were sitting there, crocodile tears were coming out of everyone,” Losev said on MATCH PRIME.
