Russia’s famous footballer Igor Akinfeev, who is a former goalkeeper of the national team and currently goaltends for CSKA Moscow football club, said on Thursday it was extremely important to follow guidelines of the country’s authorities under the ongoing spread of the novel coronavirus and to abide by the recommendations of self-isolation.
"Even weather forecasters cannot give exact predications," the press service of CSKA Moscow FC quoted the club’s captain as saying. Asked when the pandemic was likely to be over, Akinfeev said: "I believe that we must continue waiting and do what we are recommended to do, because the quarantine is the necessary measure to prevent the spread of the infection. I believe that the self-isolation is a very important matter."
"The most important thing is for people to understand that this measure is really indispensable," he continued. "I have watched videos from parks, where people went on barbeque picnics [amid the self-isolation], and it is a bit scary. There were several thousands of them, but they are capable of spreading the infection on hundreds of thousands."
Akinfeev also said he believed that the Russian football championship was unlikely to be resumed in the foreseeable future.
