Goalie CSKA Igor Akinfeev criticized social networks and called on young athletes to stop using them.
— At the beginning of October, two missed penalties by an 18-year-old were the subject of heated discussions in our football newspaper. Ilya Ichkova Since “Ural” . The safest way in such a situation is to not pay attention to anyone and continue playing. Yes, it’s difficult not to see, not to hear, not to read. The young man probably has social networks, and he studies them. But sooner or later he will come to the conclusion that it is better to dismiss it. He will receive constructive criticism anyway, but he will find negative and insults on social networks.
Talking about yourself is a small thing that should not determine the path. Today you didn’t score, and tomorrow you will give away 25 penalties in a row, like Fomin from Dynamo. Do you like football? Practice, push until the last minute and enjoy.
And a little more on social networks. When I started, they just didn’t exist. Even journalism was different: a notepad, a pen and a dictaphone were considered a luxury. You understood that there would be no trap. And now, after the game, there are 25 cameras. Someone wants to offend, someone deliberately asks stupid questions and is looking for a fool who will get caught. It’s the same with social media. To me, it’s a place where there are 348 reviews against you alone, 323 of which say you made a mistake and missed. This is my experience of football. But it is already clear to me that I was wrong. Why listen to ridicule? Every athlete has the possibility of not living on social networks. Otherwise, you will not be immersed in your own life, but in someone else’s,” Akinfeev wrote in a letter published on Sports.ru.
As part of CSKA, 37-year-old Akinfeev became champion of Russia six times, won seven national cups and supercups, and also won the UEFA Cup.
CSKA will host Krasnodar in the MIR RPL 13th round match. Watch the live broadcast of the match on October 29 from 19:00 (Moscow time) on the and MATCH PREMIER channels, as well as on the matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru sites.
