Sergey Shishkarev talked about a possible match between the national teams of Russia and the USA in an interview with the Russia 24 TV channel.
— I offered Hassan Moustafa to hold a meeting between the national teams of Russia and the USA. The issue is of a high degree of development. To some extent, it’s a continuation of a possible match between the national hockey teams, involving men playing hockey, while girls — handball.
Such a match will be interesting to both Russians and Americans shortly before the 2028 Olympic Games. Their national teams are not so strong, but they have to expose them for participation in the home Games. I suppose that from a marketing standpoint this match will give a lot to the Americans. Probably, such matches will help them to overcome the preliminary stage of the Olympic tournament. Moscow and Los Angeles, as the capital of the Olympic Games-2026, are the most suitable locations, — the head of the HFR said.
