Honorary President of the Russian Football Union (RFU) Vyacheslav Koloskov commented on the statement of Russian Sports Minister Oleg Matytsin, who said that Belarus was working on the list of teams that will participate in the Russian Football Championship. Koloskov’s words are quoted as follows: “Match TV”.
This has no sporting meaning, it will not benefit Russian football at all. Maybe a new investment will come from advertising. The decision needs to be made by the two federations, one day our suspension will end. If there is a joint championship, problems will arise,” Koloskov said.
Now at the top of the Belarusian championship table is Dinamo Minsk, which has 54 points after 22 matches. In second place is Neman, who collected 52 points in 23 matches. The top three were closed by Torpedo-BelAZ, which received 39 points according to the results of 22 matches.
The International Football Federation (FIFA) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) have decided to suspend the participation of the Russian national team and all Russian clubs in all competitions controlled by these organizations in the spring of 2022.
