Former Dynamo team player Vladimir Granat evaluated the opponents of the Russian national team in the upcoming friendly matches. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In September, the team led by Valery Karpin will face Jordan and Qatar, and in October, they will play against Iran and Bolivia. According to Granat, playing against teams that have participated or will participate in World Cups is beneficial.
He stated that Bolivia is stronger compared to previous opponents, with the exception of Nigeria and Cameroon. According to reports, Russia's upcoming rivals are ranked 64th, 53rd, 20th, and 78th in the FIFA rankings, respectively.
The Russian national team has never played against the national teams of Jordan and Bolivia before. These friendly matches are expected to provide new experiences and opportunities for the team.
Experts emphasize that such games are crucial for enhancing the team's preparation. At the same time, the level of the opponents will also serve as a good test for the team.
