According to Tasnim news agency and quoted by RB SPORT of Russia; Roman Shishkin said: In general, there is no motivation in the Russian national football team to play. Now it is not clear who will be invited to the national team. Golovin, Miranchuk, probably not. Of course, Karpin (head coach of Russia) talks about this. On the other hand, why shouldn’t a team get together? There is no European Cup, time is enough. Now the choice of opponent depends on the friendship of that country with us.
The former player of the Russian national team added: Considering the result and the motivation, it will be difficult to witness the greatest effort in this game. In fact, the passion for this game even from the fans of the Russian national football team will not be the same as usual. Karpin will probably not invite the main players and try to keep them motivated for these better matches. If a player has done well in the Russian Premier League, playing against Iran will be an opportunity for him. I can say that considering the level of the game with Iran and the existing motivations, the main Russian team will not go to Tehran.
According to Tasnim, according to Mehdi Taj’s announcement, a friendly match between Iran and Russia is scheduled to be held on April 2 or 3, 1402 at Azadi Stadium.
