Famous former football player Alexander Mostovoy answered the question of whether scandals affect the reputation of Russian football. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, Russian teams do not play in Europe, so the likelihood of them being followed in Europe is low. Mostovoy spent a large part of his career abroad, and no one has asked many questions about how the Russian championship is going.
Especially now, when no one is playing, events in Russian football are insignificant for them. Several scandals occurred in Russian football this summer.
The latest was the expulsion of the "Torpedo" team from the Russian Premier League, which was related to attempts to organize fixed matches. The "Orenburg" team is participating in the elite league instead of "Torpedo".
Less than a week remains until the start of the new Russian championship. On Friday, July 18, Moscow's "Dinamo" will host "Baltika".
The team defending the title of Russian champion in the new season is "Krasnodar".
