“Some of the Olympic Games and World Cup winners will probably also go to Abu Dhabi, where they plan to meet the world team in March. We received such an invitation. It will mainly include Cubans,” the source said. There are also representatives of some countries from Asia. Competitions will consist of four rounds. And before this match, we plan to do a training camp in a very good base in Kyrgyzstan.”
