There is no need to sound the alarm in case of a draw in a friendly match for the national team Russia with the Qatar team, Russian footballers have not competed at the international level for a long time, and in addition, the Qataris have a fairly strong team, the two-time Olympic biathlon champion told Dmitry Vasilyev .
The Russian national team on Tuesday drew against the Qatar team with a score of 1:1 in an away friendly match. In eight games after being suspended from international tournaments, Valery Karpin’s team drew five times, won twice and lost once.
– I don’t think it’s a failure. The Qataris participated in the World Championship and put up a good fight. Yes, even if they don’t have the most capable team, they should be treated with respect. They do not whip the boys under any circumstances. Saudi football has now taken the path of attracting stars, and I think they will raise their level. I think Qatar can follow this path. They could have a very competitive team in the years to come.
Plus, it’s been a long time since we played at a serious level. Of course, this affects the team’s class. But well done, they didn’t stop playing, they fought until the end and equalized. And, as training shows, there are no weak teams now,” Vasiliev told .
Russian clubs and national teams do not participate in tournaments under the auspices of FIFA and UEFA due to the situation in Ukraine.
