Former goalkeeper of Spartak and the USSR national team Rinat Dassaev believes that the team Russia drew against Kenya in a friendly match because the players did not have enough skills to achieve a better result.
The match took place on Monday in Turkey and ended with a score of 2:2. The Russian team was saved from defeat in the 89th minute thanks to a goal from Ivan Oblyakov. Previously, Valery Karpin’s team beat Cameroon (1:0) in Moscow.
— Of course, after the match against Cameroon, we expected more from the national team. Well, it doesn’t matter, we’ll have to sort everything out little by little. Whatever skills the players have, that’s what they showed in the Kenya match. On the other hand, playing at a high level always takes time.
There is no need to blame Karpin. He does everything in his power. For now, he has gathered possible players. Karpin varies the lineup, examines the players, who is in what form and whether they want to play in the national team. It takes time for him to appreciate all this. But at the moment there are simply no better players. And they “brought” each other goals,” quotes Dasaev in Sport24.
