The plans of the Italian men's volleyball team to hold a friendly match with Russia in August have been canceled. This information was released by the Italian Volleyball Federation, citing Virgilio Sport.
Previously, Russian propagandists spread information about the possibility of a game between the teams in August. However, the Italian team clarified that no friendly matches with Russia will take place.
Thus, the Italian team refused to play against Russia due to provoked disinformation and negative reactions on social media.
This information is important in the context of modern political and sports relations between countries, and highlights the influence of media on sports events.
