Olympic champion in cross-country skiing Alexander Legkov spoke about the football players participating in the 2022 World Cup, who respect themselves more than others, and compared the organization of the tournament in Russia in 2018 and in Qatar.
– Some say that this World Cup will go down in history by not being so interesting, because everyone is interested in a different agenda. On the other hand, everything is colorful in the stands, people are watching, rejoicing. Yesterday, of course, it was not the same level. Then there will be top teams and it will be interesting to watch. I will look this time too. There is such beauty, such professionals.
When I entered the media league, I realized that I didn’t know how to play football at all, although before that I thought it was so special in general. It seemed to me that I was not bad at it, but when I went out with young boys who had gone through a sports school, I realized that I had to leave for a replacement. You have to think with your head, to pass correctly. More respect for this sport
Is there a player you respect the most?
– The answer will be banal – Messi and Ronaldo or Ronaldo and Messi, I’m not talking about the rating now. Modric, Suarez, who has already bitten someone for certain body parts. Yes, our guys. I’m sure our level of World Cup attire was one of the best. It seems to me. At the Sochi Games, I can say that was the case. This is my objective image as someone who has been to other Olympics before – everything was done for the athletes. I think the World Cup was organized at the same high level. Now? I don’t know, I hope everything goes well for them in Qatar too,” Legkov said.
