Jikia: Uruguay shows good football – a worthy opponent for the Russian team

Defender “Khimok” Georgy Dzhikia reacted to the news that the Russian national team may play a friendly match with Uruguay in 2025. He highly appreciated this option of an opponent for the Russian team.

— The option with Uruguay is very good for the Russian team.

— Was there an opponent of a similar level for the national team after the suspension?
— I don’t particularly like to compare, but Serbia is a good opponent, with world stars in the lineup. Uruguay is playing very good football now. I even watched a few of their games. This is a worthy high-level opponent, just like the Serbian national team,” Dzhikia said in a conversation with “Championship” correspondent Alexander Ershov.
