The President of the Russian Football Union (RFU), Alexander Dyukov, after losing to Russia at the European Championship, said that he did not want personnel withdrawals “in hot pursuit.” On June 21, in the decisive match, the Russian team under the leadership of coach Stanislav Cherchesov lost to the Denmark national team with a score of 4: 1.
“The results of our performance at the European Football Championship are unsatisfactory. The assigned task of leaving the group was not completed. At the same time, I think that it is wrong to make personnel conclusions in hot pursuit. Many thanks to the fans for their support, especially to those who were able to attend the match in Copenhagen today, ”TASS quotes Mr. Dyukov as saying.
Cherchesov called the game of the Russian team in the match with Denmark the best “in terms of quality and readiness”, but “we did not score two good chances, but they scored with nothing.” He also said that the responsibility always lies with the coach and “we need to improve.” The captain of the Russian national team Artem Dzyuba apologized to the fans for the loss and said that the coaching staff cannot be blamed for this defeat. According to him, the players “chewed everything up, explained everything.”
