RUSSIA’S FRIENDLY GAME AGAINST ARMENIA IS POLITICAL MOVE – FOOTBALL AGENT

February 4, 2014

The match against Armenia is a political move, football agent Dmitry
Selyuk stated.

He spoke on the friendly game slated for March 15 between the national
squads of Armenia and Russia.

“In the same way, you could play against a Baltic factory team.

“If the Russian Football Union was going to make such a move, it should
have come to an agreement with Ukraine; this would have been both a
political and a sporting move,”Sport Daily quotes Selyuk as saying.

The Russia-Armenia friendly will be played in Krasnodar, Russia.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
