Vladislav Radimov, a former player of the Russian national team, shared his thoughts on the Iranian national team, which will be the opponent in the next friendly match organized by Bet Boom. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to Radimov, the current lack of participation of the Russian national team in international competitions means that the ranking results are not given much attention. Nevertheless, the fact that the Iranian national team is ranked among the top twenty in the world is considered a significant achievement and could be a good test for Russia.
For reference, in 2023, the Russian and Iranian national teams faced each other in a friendly match. This match was held in Tehran and ended in a 1:1 draw.
The Iranian national team has secured a spot in the 2026 World Cup. This tournament will take place in Canada, the USA, and Mexico.
Therefore, the match against Iran will be an important experience for Russia and a good opportunity to assess the current state of the team.
