Russian national football team will never be caught in the use of banned stimulant drugs. This was stated by a Russian journalist and TV presenter Vladimir Pozner. In his opinion, doping officers and officials will not even have any attempts to "dig up". "The way they (the Russian football players) play, does not lead to these thoughts, let's be frank," Posner wrote on his website. The fact that Russia entered the playoffs at the 2018 World Cup, the journalist considers good luck to be pure water: "First of all, with the group, two very weak teams were lucky: Saudi Arabia and Egypt. It was lucky that it was with these teams that we played first, and not with the strong ones; if we at the beginning played with strong teams - the mood would be quite different. And so, the first victory 5: 0, the second victory 3:

1. We went into the next round, "- recalls Posner. In addition, he believes that Russian athletes have made proper conclusions after the doping scandal in 2016. , when our athletes and representatives of other federations were not admitted to the Olympics in Rio, and then in Pyeongchang. "This is a harsh lesson, yes, this lesson has benefited us," the TV presenter. Previously, FIFA said that in the doping tests taken at the World Cup 2018, no violations were found.
