Former head coach of the Russian national team Anatoly Byshovets told that a match against the Chinese team would be necessary and useful for Russian football.
Earlier, RFU President Alexander Dyukov said that he was in contact with the Chinese Football Federation about a possible match between the Russian national team and the Chinese national team.
— Chinese football is developing, the concept of development is different from that of Japan or Korea. The match against China is useful and necessary for Karpin, especially since the relations between the countries will help strengthen them. This is hardly a step towards Asia. For well-known reasons, Russian integration is not of interest to Asian football,” Byshovets told .
The Russian national team will play its next match on March 21 against Serbia. On March 25, the Russians will host the Paraguayan national team. Both matches will take place at the VTB Arena stadium in Moscow.
