I seem to doubt it. I think you can get away with unimportant RPL and UPL matches, but not this. Furthermore I think it is just some people looking for an excuse why Russia got upset.
...what he said.. our fans are best in the world ...and YES WE DID BOUGHT THE GAME. We gave the next year national budget money to the FIFA. It was barely enough.
What are these rumors that the Russian team was out partying late into the night before the final match against Slovenia?
Wow, if these guys couldn't hold it together in Slovenia of all places then imagine what happens in Moscow before the games.
If that is true, it's not only pathetic and embarrassing, it's downright disrespectful to your country.
It was more of a question than a statement. I heard from someone that Perviy Kanal ran a special on it, so I am wondering if any of it is true.
It's been posted already, judge the validity for yourself: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVMuBINyELc"]YouTube- ?????? ? ??????? ?????? ?? ??????? (??????? ? ?????)[/ame]
So either Perviy Kanal fabricated an entire story complete with fake interviews and commentary about the team staying up late into the night drinking beer, or they really did it. Good to hear that Akinfeev is a sober monogamist.
