Training of the Russian national team - hands clasped (VIDEO)

On Monday, the Russian national team will play a crucial European Championship match against the Welsh team.

Only a victory would keep Leonid Slutsky's players' hopes alive of reaching the quarterfinals of the tournament.

Before the match against the Welsh team, the coach decided to diversify the training exercises and instructed his players to run while holding hands.

It is hoped that this will help them adapt to the intense defense of the opponents during the match.
