Raimkul Attakurov told a news conference that the match, the date of which is yet to be agreed on, would most likely take place at a police sporting facility.

Although the nationalist group concerned was not named, Russian media speculated that the ambassador had in mind the ultra-right Slavyansky Soyuz (Slavic Union) movement, headed by Dmitry Demushkin.
