Coach Valery Karpin said he was not holding on to a place in the Russian national team
The head coach of the Russian national football team Valery Karpin answered the question about his resignation from the team. His words are quoted by Sport24.
The specialist said that he does not hold on to a place in the national team, as well as in Rostov, despite the fact that he likes working in teams. “Are you ready to resign if we lose to Iraq? And what will change? Will we be returned? What, am I going to die from this?” Karpin argued.
On March 25, former Russian national team player Andrey Kobelev criticized Karpin. The dissatisfaction of the former Dynamo coach was caused by an interview with a specialist, in which he admitted that he was not holding on to a place in the national team.
Karpin led the Russian national team in the summer of 2021. Under his leadership, the team reached the play-offs for the right to play at the 2022 World Cup, but did not play in them by decision of the International Football Federation (FIFA).
