Before the World Cup is exactly three weeks. Today, May 24, it became known that the International Football Federation (FIFA) has deprived the country's host country of the tournament of working with the doping tests of athletes. This was stated by the head of the medical committee of FIFA Michel D'Hug. "My main condition for conducting anti-doping policy in Russia is that everything from the beginning to the end should be carried out by FIFA efforts without Russian intervention," he says.. Recall, two days earlier, the international federation justified our players who allegedly used illegal drugs. As a result, the cases that generated the findings of WADA, turned down due to lack of texture.
And before that there was information that the chief informant of the agency, who fled from Russia, the former head of the Moscow Anti-Doping Laboratory, Grigory Rodchenkov, "poured out" to journalist Hayo Zeppelt details from the sporting life of our football players and Vitaly Mutko. Let's note the first time the championship will be held at Russian stadiums. It will be 11 cities.
Starts the world football championship on June 14 and will last until July 15.
