Koloskov said that he was disgusted to answer the question about Russia’s purchase of 2018 World Cup matches
Honorary President of the Russian Football Union (RFU) Vyacheslav Koloskov responded to the statement of former Manchester United player Andrei Kanchelskis, who accused the Russian team of cheating at the 2018 home World Cup. It is reported by Sport24.
“Well, what am I going to comment on the nonsense of this sick person? I hate to answer this question!” Koloskov said. He also offered to get the opinion of the direct participants of the tournament on this matter.
Kanchelskis spoke on the subject on 5 January. “All the games have been bought. What, you don’t know about it? At the World Championships, we were pulled by the ears, ”Kanchelskis said.
The Russian national team at the home world championship in the group stage beat Saudi Arabia and Egypt, and also lost to Uruguay. In the 1/8 finals, the team of Stanislav Cherchesov defeated Spain in the penalty shootout, and lost to Croatia in the quarterfinals in the 11-meter series. Previously, the Russian national team has never been among the eight best teams in the world.
