Anfisa Reztsova was outraged by the high salaries of Russian football players
Three-time Olympic champion Anfisa Reztsova compared the popularity of football in Russia with skiing and biathlon. It is reported by “RB-Sport”.
“I am sure that among Russians these disciplines are more popular and more beloved than football. These are folk sports,” said Reztsova.
She was also outraged by the high salaries of football players. “Why do footballers earn much more than all other athletes? This is unfair and undeserved, considering what their results are, ”said the athlete.
Earlier, two-time Olympic champion in gymnastics Svetlana Khorkina spoke about the salaries of football players and hockey players. “I know that there are big salaries in football and hockey, but I don’t look into anyone’s wallet and I don’t dare to say anything about this,” Khorkina said.
