Senior coach of the Russian youth team Ivan Shabarov told that he was happy with the results of his trip to Brazil, where his team played four friendlies.
On Monday, the Russian youth team drew against the Brazilian youth team from Sao Paulo in a friendly match with a score of 1:1. Previously, Shabarov’s team beat Santos (6:4) and Palmeiras (3:1) and also tied with SKA Brazil (2:2).
— The match was really difficult for us. It is clear that the guys are already running out of strength. And the weather got warmer, the heat pressed us a little. In terms of content, today’s match probably stands out from the general pattern of these games. Today we did not show our optimal level. Nevertheless, the guys were great, they wanted to win out of character and were upset that they couldn’t do it. It’s good that they do this.
—Is this a useful trip?
– Definitely useful. The players tested their strength against the best Brazilian teams. I hope this will give them confidence and also see where they can grow. These teams have a lot to learn in certain types of training. Definitely a positive trip all round.
“Now there is a difficult road ahead.” Will the guys be able to return to their clubs quickly?
– Of course, there is fatigue that has accumulated over these four matches. But our task is to restore them. I hope the clubs will treat this with understanding. It is always more pleasant to fly after positive results than negative ones. Therefore, a positive emotional background will allow guys to recover faster,” Shabarov told .
