3:26pm, 11 October 2025【Football】

In a football friendly match on October 11, Russia defeated Iran 2-1. Since being banned in 2022, they have remained unbeaten in 20 friendly matches.

After Russia was banned from competition in March 2022, it has always participated in friendly matches. In the past three and a half years, Russia has participated in a total of 23 games, including 20 official friendly matches unbeaten and 3 unofficial matches with 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss (the loss was against Egypt U23 in September 2023).

Russia will also face Bolivia in a friendly match this month. The former is currently ranked 33rd in the world and the latter is 77th. In the years after the ban, Russia used friendly matches to ensure that the team would not be removed from the FIFA rankings. Because Russia can only play friendly matches, the points gained from 20 undefeated games are not many, it just keeps them in the 30th-40th place.
