"Europe is ours: the Spartak legend said that if Russia "gets into Asia," then "it won't get out of there.
The legendary Spartak Moscow goalkeeper Rinat Dasaev spoke out against Russia's withdrawal from the European Football Union (UEFA) and the country's transition to Asia. According to the 1988 European vice-champion under Valeriy Lobanovskiy, if Russia decides to take such a step, it will be difficult to go back in the future.
Dasaev said this in a commentary for the propaganda TV channel Match TV. The former USSR national team goalkeeper expressed regret over the suspension of Russian teams from UEFA tournaments and added that a return to European competitions "may have to wait a couple of years".

"I don't think we need to get into Asia. If we get in there now, we won't get out of there and we won't get into Europe. We must not go there, because Europe is ours. God forbid, this will all be over soon and we'll be back. Maybe we`ll have to wait for a couple of years. Friendly matches of the national team? Of course. We need to test young guys and play friendlies against any opponent," said Dasaev.
