The Russian national football team is stuck in Hanoi due to the impending super typhoon Yagi. The elements have already battered China pretty badly, and since this morning they have switched to Vietnam. The peak of bad weather is expected here in the evening.
The Russian team flew to Hanoi to play several friendly matches. She played with the local national team. But the players from Thailand were supposed to meet today. Due to bad weather, the plans had to be canceled. The Asian team offered to postpone the meeting for a day, but ours refused, as there was no absolute guarantee for normal weather on Sunday.
However, the Russian national team cannot leave Vietnam yet. Hanoi Airport is closed due to the super typhoon. Judging by the online scoreboard, the last flights were sent here in the morning, more than 10 hours ago. Now the players, coaches and administration of the national team are staying in a hotel in the Vietnamese capital. The airport in Hanoi may be able to return to full-time work only closer to night, after which the team will return home.
