Insider Ivan Karpov announced on his Telegram channel why the "Lokomotiv" team refused to exchange games with "Pari NN". This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, "Lokomotiv" made this decision in connection with the Railway Workers' Day. Corporate events are planned to be held in the "RJD Arena" area from August 2 to 4.
The "Nizhny Novgorod" team has proposed to hold a game with "Lokomotiv" in Moscow twice, but both proposals were rejected. Karpov also noted that in the third round, which will take place at the beginning of August, the "Lokomotiv" team will play against "Pari NN" in Grozny.
Currently, "Pari NN"'s home stadium is under renovation, so the team is forced to play in reserve arenas. This situation is affecting the teams' game schedules.
Thus, the location and time of the games between "Lokomotiv" and "Pari NN" are being determined based on mutual agreement. This information is of significant importance for football fans.
