Former CSKA Moscow midfielder Evgeny Aldonin expressed confidence that the friendly match between the national teams of Russia and Cuba in Volgograd will attract a full stadium of fans.
The game between the national teams of Russia and Cuba will take place on November 20 at the 2018 World Cup stadium in Volgograd – Volgograd Arena, the start is scheduled for 19:30 Moscow time.
— I don’t know anything about Cuba. This is the same as asking about Kenya. I don’t follow the Cuban national team. Russia needs international games – that’s a fact. This is a good practice for both young people and those who are getting involved for the first time. But I find it difficult to say anything about Cuba.
We played with Kenya in Turkey in front of empty stands. The match with Cuba will take place in Volgograd. I know how they love football there. I am sure that the stadium will be almost full. I don’t even doubt it. With its fans and such excitement, it will be reminiscent of the match with the Cameroon national team, although the sign is not so loud. The Russian team is stronger than the Cuban team. And I hope that he will achieve victory,” Aldonin told the Championship.
The upcoming match will be the third home game for the Russian team this year. On March 26 in St. Petersburg, the Russian team beat the Iraqi team (2:0), and on October 12 in Moscow they defeated the Cameroon team (1:0). In the last game in October, Russian football players played a draw on the road with the Kenyan team (2:2) in Antalya, Turkey.
