well joining us today is alexey sorokin the man in charge of russia's world cup paid for twenty eight teams to silicon thank you for your time thank you if we could start by talking about russia's chances to win this because a lot of people see it as a two horse race between russia and england how do you write russia's johnson how do you see russia is unique selling points if you like the first of all we have regarded this as a for horse race for two thousand and eighteen but out of these four horses i think we are we have very good chances where very confident. without being overconfident of course we believe we have all it takes to to win this bid or unorganized very good world cup one aspect of which is very important for its legacy and there we have a lot to offer i mean legacy after the world cup in russia would be immense. will influence not only the football development in this country but certainly in the

entire region where russia is situated and exported to all our neighbors so there is another aspect where we feel quite well one thing free for is concerned about is the creation of white elephant so certainly in england there's a huge english premier league that all the stadiums they use pretty much they have to build full from scratch if russia got well and they had to be able to fifteen stating you called for them that they would be able to you would be able to fill them on a regular basis for certain events and the i think is absolutely guaranteed with that with no white elephants because we've been carefully choosing all the hosts it is by them having either the premier league or the first division club so there isn't a major club playing in each host city. and we think with the state of the art infrastructure of the attendance. to grow plus what we have what we have in mind in terms of design of the stadium is temporary tribunes which with which the stadiums will

reach a fee for acquired levels after the world cup some of the attributes will be removed and we'll have the stadiums with the capacity that is needed in a particular region if a city needs twenty five thousand stadium while it will have exactly nothing and nothing more i can say and jestingly how will it work for a well cup in russia because you have kaliningrad you have a great distance and similarly have some pain and so change logistically how we found we do not envision a plan where a group match or group matches can be held to one including growth and one in the incident. of course this this needs accurate planning but through funding we can achieve more convenience for the distances it will be within regular limits for

free for right now we the father stated that we have is only two hours by plane from moscow and that's that's not something extraordinary for a fee for. i mean look at the history of the world cup that we had we've had japan and korea we will have brazil we had south africa these are not small countries obviously competing with other leading nations it's been a few spots in the press with england has that same advantage i don't think it's a factor in our beds. i mean that we have been the focus of the british media but. i think it now will subside and people will have other things to speak and the closer we get to the final presentation the more the person will be in the focus we have not been part of any. and is speculative allegations or those or any. traps.

and so we don't see any reason why we shouldn't shouldn't be at least in the final in the british press they did talk about incidences of hooliganism and also racism is that initiated being brought up by fate for a time when you know. what these issues are perfectly global when they are not indigenous here they are not typical or characteristic of russia. these are things that are that pose universal challenge and in football. and of course as a country of one hundred forty five million people we occasionally have outbreaks of negative various negative processes of course. racism hooligans are among them we do have very minor sporadic outbreaks but they do not represent a trend and russian

a lot to really confront these challenges recently a memorandum and racist behavior was adopted by russian football union which we think is a good program to really. tackle this issue. but it's all a matter of whether you bring that up constantly and sort of robot or just position it as normal negative outbreaks in the overall positive landscape and positive development we have a few weeks left before the announcement is made what can you do between now and then what's the price you have to be obviously members twenty full members of the executive committee you have to get thirteen values to secure the will cup what you do now between matter and that where there is a lot of presentations of public and individual that have taken place. there are a few that will still have to happen. within the next month. we

have another event which is called soccer x. in rio in brazil which is very important for. a few individual presentations a few individual contacts and that's what we were up to preparing. a good sound final presentation and that's it and the committee members they give you an inclination of high they may not necessarily know but what we see is. that they are genuinely interested in and russia those who come here are sometimes very positively surprised. at the progress and the achievements that russia has made over the recent years and you think that's a real plus for you'll be do you think this will catch the error of the executive committee because this is something perhaps unusual compared to the other european base for sure all the visitors will see a lot of russia's

a lot of different parts of russia and we have really. various over a whole variety of regions i mean we have the western culture of kaliningrad the beauty of st petersburg could be muslim touch. and we have the. flavor of sochi. i mean these are all various russia's that people will experience these are regions that are that have their own cultural and ethnic identity which is sometimes very peculiar and interesting a lot of work has to be done and when the. committee was here having a look over the some of the four days over the summer you'll bid they did say that would have to start immediately. does that concern you is it something that's going to be a problem getting things ready. in time or something you'll come to believe well we've never had any problems. with delivering what we promised to look at look at

sochi and every promise that we have made to the sea is being fulfilled right now as we speak. we do have a lot of things to build but it's no secret and we have already started that even. the first choice out of sixteen stadiums will be built regardless of the outcome of the december second. and same applies for other infrastructure in all the all the regions will develop. regardless of the world cup only with the world cup it will be faster and more focused and i promise the patient is always to be a factor hey he's given its backing you will be to his full backing how much do you think that will bay and in fact do you know whether he will actually be there when the announcement is made or certain i don't know that for sure but he has given it

prime minister putin has given us his full support he has agreed to sign three additional guarantees on top of the guarantees required by fee for he's very well aware of what's going on. how it develops. and we certainly hope to continue. having his support and even if russia doesn't win the spade it's still been a success story for russia i don't even want to think about it. but at least we. we have tried our best. we. showed the world the football where we are what we have achieved what we have to offer what we intend to. construct. and that alone is a great achievement. but we are very hopeful of the will and. fingers crossed best of luck thank you.

themselves against those players not just against the russian elite teams that is an. important to start. it is important to have in the first players of. this group. but. i think. the final decision. for the champions league is in february march. you have to be. real in this moment to avoid injury to my. feet. february march. elsewhere alf mall saying fresh vision enough seven nail also failed to qualifying group h. . for the enough plus shock to anybody else brought up doing just enough to talk in that same group while via munich state perfect being grouped in formula with
