Athletistic/Football. Zenit defender Danil Krugovoy shared his opinion on why he was not invited to the Russian national team for a friendly match against Cuba.
“It’s been a year since I was called up to the Russian national team? It’s terrible how time flies. Of course, I want to play for the national team, and a match with any opponent interests me. It’s clear “There are no official matches yet. It’s sad, but what we have is what we have. My job is to work and prove, but the decision always comes down to the technical staff.
Now they don’t call me anymore, apparently because of my training at the club. A year ago, there were more. I really wanted to play against Cuba. But I also heard about the position of the head coach, who said that he does not call up players who recently had children to the national team. For obvious reasons, this can interfere with concentration, but I have no difficulty in this sense. After the meeting with Kyrgyzstan, Karpin even told me: “I will see you soon,” Krugovoy was quoted as saying by “Championship”.
Danil Krugovoy played one match for the Russian national team. In the Russian youth team (U21), the defender played six matches and scored one goal. On October 28, Krugovoy and his wife Christina had a daughter. The parents named the daughter Adeline.
