According to Guberniev, he wants to live up to the moment when Russia and Ukraine can freely play with each other. The commentator added that the match between the Russian and Ukrainian teams will be a great holiday and great happiness for him. “How great it would be now if the players played against each other in the joints [за выход на чемпионат мира-2022]”, – he said.
Both teams have finished second in their groups and will continue their fight to qualify for the 2022 World Cup in play-offs.
