Double USSR football champion Anzor Kavazashvili sure that Russian national team in future years will not be allowed to participate in official competitions. He declared it on the air of the program “There is a theme!” on MatchTV.
On the eve of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) reacted to reports of possible sanctions against the national team of Bosnia and Herzegovina for participating in a friendly match with the Russian team, noting that the match is not within the jurisdiction of the organization.
Earlier, the Football Union of Bosnia and Herzegovina (NSBiH) announced that the game will take place on November 19 in St. Petersburg. Later, Bosnian footballers Edin Dzeko and Miralem Pjanic spoke out against this game.
– I would like to say that football players or athletes in general should not be involved in politics. Footballers have a small age – it’s 10 years old. Earn money, do everything to feed your family. What are you climbing where you have nothing to do? What is this? He imposes a ban on himself as a person, as a football player who has to show his skills and win the love of the fans. I do not understand this!
Imagine that when we received sanctions after Mr. Bach’s Olympic instructions and our team completely “undressed”, the red jerseys were removed, the flags were removed, everything was removed, the white jerseys were removed. been allowed, etc., and we only participate out of respect for the fact that our sportsmen have to play football since childhood, for example, to show their skills all over the world.
But what I say now, speaking daily to our leaders – the RFU, why are we now flirting with UEFA and FIFA, why are we hoping that they will eventually allow us to play club football in the international level or in national teams? Yes, that will not happen! In the next three or four years, no one will allow us anything!
Therefore please this is the first signal that like Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iran and Kyrgyzstan will be next [прессовать]. We do not know yet ! Despite the fact that they write that their ban does not apply to friendly matches, Kavazashvili said on .
The Russian national team will play a friendly match with Kyrgyzstan on September 24 in Bishkek. In November, in addition to the meeting with the Bosnians, Valery Karpin’s team must play a test match with Iran.
Russian clubs and teams have been suspended from tournaments under the auspices of FIFA and UEFA due to the situation in Ukraine.
