1. Vấn đề giao thông
2. Liệu giá cả tại nước Nga có “mềm”?
3. Các sân vận động thì sao?
4. Sự hâm mộ của khán giả
5. Sự quan tâm của dư luận đến bóng đá
Cầu thủ người Nga, Andrei Kanchelskis, siêu tiền vệ của Manchester United một thời cũng phải thừa nhận rằng “không như người Nga, người Anh luôn tôn thờ bóng đá, họ không thể tưởng tượng cuộc sống của họ sẽ ra sao nếu không có môn thể thao này. Để người hâm mộ tại Nga có thể cuồng nhiệt với bóng đá như vậy, có lẽ chúng tôi sẽ còn rất nhiều việc phải làm”.
