Defender of the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team Ervin Zukanovic opposed the decision to hold a friendly match between Russia and Bosnia and Herzegovina in St. Petersburg. Earlier, the football associations of these two countries agreed to play such a match in November.
“The decision to hold such a match is a shameful act on the part of the President of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Obviously, he forgot what country he lives in and what flag our country plays under.
Whoever appears in this game will no longer be able to return to our country!
I hope the captain of our national team will take on the role of leader and announce that no one will go to the match against Russia. This is the only correct way, ”Dnevni avaz quotes Zukanovich.
Recall that earlier, the captain of the Bosnian national team, Edin Dzeko, had already opposed the match between Russia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Miralem Pjanic also supported his teammates.
