Текст:

Родиной российского футбола считается небольшой городок Орехово-Зуево, где в конце 19 века появилась первая команда.

С тех пор прошло много времени, и футбол стал любимой игрой россиян. Сегодня самые известные клубы – это Спартак, Зенит, ЦСКА, Локомотив и Динамо.

Сборная России, к сожалению, не может похвастаться достойными результатами. По состоянию на 15 февраля 2018 года сборная России в рейтинге ФИФА занимает только 61-е место. Лучший результат команда показала в 2008 году на чемпионате Европы. Россия вместе с Турцией заняла тогда третье место.

Translation

The homeland of Russian football is a small town Orekhovo-Zuevo, where in the late 19th century the first team appeared.

Since then, a lot of time has passed, and football has become a favorite game for Russians. Today the most famous clubs are Spartak, Zenit, CSKA, Lokomotiv and Dynamo.

The Russian National team, unfortunately, can not boast of worthy results. As of February 15, 2018, the Russian team in the FIFA ranking takes only 61 place. The best result was shown by the team in 2008 at the European Championships. Russia took third place together with Turkey.
