Maksim Mitrofanov, the Secretary General of the Russian Football Socialist Federation (RFS), expressed his thoughts on the possibility of organizing a friendly match between the national teams of Russia and Iran. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He stated that such a match could take place and it is planned to be held in Russia. There is no official confirmation yet, but we hope that the meeting will take place.
Mitrofanov spoke about this in an interview with the "Championat" publication. It should be noted that the Russian national team has been suspended from international competitions by a joint decision of FIFA and UEFA.
Therefore, Valery Karpin's team is only allowed to hold friendly matches. In the last friendly game, Russian players achieved a significant victory over the Belarusian team with a score of 4:1.
This situation is an important test for Russian football, as the team is constantly testing itself and wishes to participate actively in the international arena in the future. Friendly matches provide players with the opportunity to improve their skills and enhance their performance as a team.
The match between Russia and Iran is eagerly awaited by football fans.
