Goalkeeper of the National Hockey League (NHL) club "New York Rangers" Ondrej Pavelets called Russia a bad place to host the World Cup.
"Will I go to the World Cup? Russia - an imperfect place to watch football. In addition, I do not have a favorite team in this tournament. I like the team of Italy, but it did not get to the championship, like the Czech team. But I like the tournament itself.
All within a month only and will talk about it. It's fun, "- said the hockey player, who is quoted by ISport.
In his opinion, Germany or Portugal can win the tournament with Ronaldo, but he would like to win another team.
"Personally, I wish victory to Argentina. It can become important for Messi, "- added the athlete.
The World Cup in Russia starts on June 14 with the match Russia - Saudi Arabia. The tournament will last until July 15.
