Igor Kolyvanov spoke about the match of the Russian national team against Cameroon

On October 12, the Russian national football team played another friendly match as part of the international break, which fell on the continent due to the qualifying matches for the 2024 European Championship, which will be held in Germany. The Russian national team will not take part in the qualifying matches for the European Championship due to the suspension, which came into force in March 2022. For more than a year now, Valery Karpin’s team has been playing only friendly matches.

Valery Karpin’s team played successfully in a friendly match against Cameroon on October 14. The Russians won with a score of 1:0. The winning goal was scored by Fedor Chalov in the 40th minute. The victory over Cameroon was the first for the Russian team in 2023. On October 16, the Russian team will play against Kenya in the capital of Turkey. The start of the match is scheduled for 19:00 Moscow time.

Igor Kolyvanov spoke about the Russian team’s victory over Cameroon.

“Cameroon has a good selection of players. We didn’t have an easy time in this match, and in some moments there were reasons for concern. However, Valery Karpin’s team also created a danger in front of the opponent’s goal. And chances arose more than once. In the second half, the game was more equal “, said Kolyvanov.
