The friendly matches of the Russian national team with the national teams of Thailand and Vietnam, which will be held in September, will go into the International Football Federation ranking.
"Both matches will be taken into account in the FIFA ranking," TASS quoted an unnamed representative of the press service of the Russian Football Union (RFU) as saying.

In particular, the Russian national team was suspended from the qualifying cycle of the World Cup 2022, has already missed the qualification of Euro 2024, as well as the last draw of the Nations League.
At the moment, the Russian national team is ranked 33rd in the FIFA ranking.
