Russian fans are shocked by what is happening

The Syrian national football team has agreed to play against the Russian team. According to Emad Amiri, Communications Director of the Syrian Football Federation, active negotiations are underway with the Russian Football Union (RFU) regarding a friendly match in November.

"We are at the final stage and have already agreed on the date of the match - November 19. We are negotiating the venue, Syria may play in Russia. We are close to making this match take place in November, but no official documents have been signed yet," Amiri said in an interview with sport24. In particular, the option of holding the match in Moscow is being discussed.

Initially, the Russian national team was supposed to play Pakistan, but the parties failed to reach an agreement, despite the fact that the Pakistani national team is free from matches on these dates after being eliminated from the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Tanzania also did not want to contact Russia.

So far, the Russian Federation has not yet announced Russia's opponents for matches during the upcoming international break. The national team's training camp will begin on October 7.

This news provoked a real hysteria among Russian fans.

"This is just divine! I've always been waiting for this match", "This is where adventurers and scoundrels get to", "What a fierce shame of despair?", "And this year there were jokes that we would only play Syria and Eritrea", "Geopolitical swing!", "It's scary to think how much we paid them to get someone to agree to play with us", "This is a breakthrough", users mock in the comments.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, on Thursday, September 5, the Russian national team defeated Vietnam in Hanoi with a score of 3:0.

In 2024, Russia played two friendly matches, defeating Serbia and Belarus with the same score - 4:0. The national team played its last away match against Kenya in Antalya, Turkey. The game ended with a score of 2:2.
