Four days earlier, the Russians will also take on Serbia at the Lva Jašina Stadium, which will be the first European opponent of Valery Karpin’s men since the beginning of the invasion. The Russian national team has been banned from international competitions, but the ban does not apply to preliminaries.
Since the invasion of Ukraine, Russian football players have mainly played against opponents from Asia and Africa, last November they completed training against Cuba. A match with Bosnia and Herzegovina was planned for the end of 2022, but it did not take place due to the protests of several Bosnian players.
