Richard W. McLaren, head of the independent commission of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), said that Russian football has a system for hiding the facts of doping. This is reported by Sportschau. "There are 155 cases that have not been analyzed. We reported this to FIFA. Obviously, there was a bank with pure urine, and it is obvious that this bank was used for football players. According to our information, attempts have been made to substitute the results of doping tests, "- said McLaren. As an example, he demonstrated the test of one of the players of the Russian Premier League. Specific name McLaren did not name. Before the start of the Confederations Cup, FIFA announced the results of the doping test of football players of the Russian national team. All samples were negative. In January, the president of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) Alexander Cheferin told about the absence of problems with the use of banned drugs.

He noted that the organization regularly conducts doping control of Russian football players. In December 2016, McLaren published the second part of the report of the independent commission WADA. In it, he announced the existence of a system of state support for the use of doping by Russian athletes. The publication of the first part of the report resulted in the omission of a number of Russian Olympians and the entire Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
