Former head coach of the Russian national team Anatoly Byshovets warmly spoke about the playing and human qualities of the mentor of Rostov and the national team Valery Karpin.
“He always had a high internal resistance to circumstances. This is a fighter! It is no coincidence that he later proved his worth both abroad and in the Russian team.
In addition to leadership qualities, he had a critical view of things. Karpin has always had a position. He saw what was happening around the national team, and in that situation he was the only player that created problems for the soccer federation. Valery was not afraid to express his opinion, ”the Championship quotes Byshovets.
Recall that in the second round of the RPL “Rostov” on his field was able to wrest a draw from “Zenith” (1:1).
Currently, the Russian national team is suspended from participation in international tournaments.
