On Sunday, the draw results for the group stage of the Russia Cup were announced. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
A serious controversy may have arisen during the draw process conducted within the framework of the Russian Premier League. According to the “Mutko Against” telegram channel, the draw was carried out in a recorded format and no representatives from the clubs participated.
Thus, there is a possibility that the organizers influenced the draw process by managing several options and distributing the teams into groups. The source emphasizes that several clubs have expressed doubts about the fairness of the draw results and are ready to call for their annulment. The current holder of the Russia Cup is the Moscow CSKA team.
This situation is significant for Russian football and is causing major discussions among teams. Football fans and experts are demanding transparency and openness in the draw process.
If the doubts are confirmed, this will lead to a review of the work of the Russian Football Federation. Therefore, the situation is being closely monitored.
