Qatar won the last match.
Today, September 12, a friendly match will be played between the teams of Qatar and Russia. The match will take place in Al Wakrah at the Al Janoub Stadium. Follow the game with us online.
The September break for national team matches is coming to an end. The Russian team is playing its last match, with the participant and host of the 2022 World Cup. It is interesting that Qatar faces the match in suboptimal conditions: in the last five matches it has lost four times.
But it’s too early to rejoice: Russia plays regularly with this team: out of three meetings they won only once, and that was 28 years ago, in 1996 (5-2). Once again we lost (1-2), and this already happened in 2016. In 2011 they tied (1-1).
By the way, since the last meeting with Qatar, in 2016, the Russian national team has been completely renewed: both the coach and the players. Obviously, the match is the main test for Valery Karpin’s team in the September training camp. First of all, he selected the best for this meeting (the second part flew to Egypt). Secondly, this is the rival with the highest status of the two, because it is not only the host of the last World Cup, but also participates in other important world competitions: the Asian Cup, the Copa América and the CONCACAF Cup ( the last two). like invited).
