    Former Russian national team player Andrei Arshavin, who now serves as Zenit's deputy general director, has spoken out about the matches of the terrorist state's "national" under-team.

    - I am not interested in watching matches from a sporting point of view - and it doesn't matter who we play against. I have no interest from a sporting point of view. But don't get me wrong. I am asked, and in this case I express my personal opinion," Arshavin told local propagandists.

    CSKA Moscow midfielder Maxim Mukhin recently injured the cruciate ligament of his knee.

    For some reason, the player and the club decided to entrust the treatment of the valuable organ not to the "best in the world" Russian medicine, but to the enemy German aesthetics. But that was not the case. The athlete of the team that calls itself the Army team was denied a German visa. Everyone in CSKA is outraged, and they believe that a terrible mistake has been made, which was told to local propagandists by Vladimir Fedotov, the coach of the Army men.

  • UAF once again asks UEFA to take decisive action against the lawlessness of the Russian Federation

    27.10.2023, 20:38

    The Ukrainian Football Association has sent an official letter to UEFA asking it to take decisive measures regarding the possible integration of football clubs from the occupied territories of Ukraine into the tournaments of the aggressor country.

    "We are forced to address once again the issue on which we have repeatedly communicated with you over the past year, namely the illegal actions of the Russian terrorist state and the Russian Federation against the Ukrainian state and football. In this case, it is about the attempts to integrate football clubs from the temporarily occupied regions of Ukraine into the Russian national championships, which is currently moving forward without any obstacles or restrictions. Despite the legal aspect, according to which UEFA granted the temporarily occupied Autonomous Republic of Crimea a special status in 2014, which should ensure its protection from Russia's aggressive behaviour.

    Recently, Russian Deputy Sports Minister Odes Baisultanov said that football clubs from the occupied territories of Ukraine should be included in Russian championships, noting that the exclusion of Crimean clubs from the second division of the Russian championship in 2014, in accordance with UEFA's requirements, was a mistake, and Russia "should not be concerned about the position of UEFA and FIFA.

    We are more than concerned about the way the situation is developing and ask UEFA to pay special attention and take decisive action regarding the above violation, lawlessness and extreme disrespect for the entire football family," the UAF letter reads.

    The so-called general secretary of the RFU, Maxim Mitrofanov, happily reported that money from UEFA continues to flow regularly to the sub-sanctioned terrorist state.

    - "We receive money from UEFA under the Hat-trick programme, which will still be in place from 2024 to 2028. We report annually. There is a small fixed part, there is a part for fulfilment of initiatives, there is an investment part. We receive all three parts. This is a total programme, it includes about €15 million, respectively €5 million every year. Of course, the RFU has to pay dues, this is the membership fee, it is 250 Swiss francs a year," the official cheerfully explained to local propagandists.

    Russian Deputy Sports Minister Odes Baisultanov made some loud statements about local under-football.

    The official promised to include in the local football championship... Shakhtar Donetsk, which, according to him, is already "considered a full-fledged Russian team". Also from 2024, Baisultanov promised to start sawing money for the "reconstruction" of the Donbass Arena. It is noteworthy that the official considers it "inexpedient to start this process before 2024 due to the current conditions".

    And the cherry on the cake. Obviously, already anticipating the reaction of the civilised world to such actions, Baisultanov said: "We are not a branch of UEFA, FIFA or anyone else. This is our territory, our country, these are Russian citizens. There will be problems, whether they include us somewhere or not - I don't care.

  • Andriy Kravchuk: "On February 24, I immediately understood that I couldn't stay in Torpedo Moscow".

    07.10.2023, 18:20

    Ukrainian footballer of Cork City, Andriy Kravchuk, has spoken about his feelings at the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.

    - I was asleep when my mum called me. Her first words were, "Russia is bombing us". I couldn't believe what I was hearing - about bombing, about 100,000 soldiers marching on Kiev.

    When I was a child, Russia and Ukraine were like brothers. Many Russians and Ukrainians married each other. People from both countries lived next to each other. I tried to understand how Russia could start a war in the 21st century. I can't find words to describe it yet. I immediately realised that I couldn't stay at Torpedo Moscow.

    We had the first world war, the second world war, and now the third. So many of our cities - Bakhmut, Mariupol and others - have been destroyed. 500,000 people have been killed or injured. I am very upset. I worry about my family all the time. They are safe now, but there are times when I call home and hear the sounds of drone attacks in the background," Kravchuk told The Athletic.

  • Full text of UEFA's decision on the return of Russian teams

    UEFA's official website has published the official decision of the union's Executive Committee on the return of some Russian teams to European competitions and its "motivational part".

    Here is the text in full.

    "UEFA was the first sports organisation to react to the war in Ukraine and took decisive action in February 2022 by suspending all Russian teams from its tournaments, cancelling events planned in Russia such as the UEFA Champions League final in St Petersburg and the UEFA Super Cup in Kazan, and cancelling its sponsorship contract with Gazprom.

    At the same time, UEFA recognises that children should not be punished for actions for which adults are solely responsible and firmly believes that football should never abandon the message of peace and hope. In particular, it is distressing that an entire generation of underage players has been denied the right to participate in international football competitions due to the ongoing conflict. The UEFA Executive Committee has therefore decided to return Russian teams consisting of underage players to participation in UEFA tournaments this season. The Executive Committee has therefore asked the UEFA administration to propose a technical solution that would allow the reinstatement of Russian U-17 teams (both girls and boys) even if the draw has already taken place. All matches of Russian teams must be played without the country's flag, anthem, national playing uniforms and not on Russian territory.

    At the same time, the executive committee reiterated its condemnation of Russia's illegal war and confirmed that the suspension of all other Russian teams (clubs and national teams) will remain in force until the conflict is over.

    UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin said: "The continued disqualification of adult Russian teams reflects UEFA's commitment to a stance against violence and aggression. UEFA intends to maintain this stance until the war ends and peace is restored. However, by banning children from our tournaments, we not only fail to recognise and support their fundamental right to all-round development, but also directly discriminate against them. By giving children the opportunity to play and compete with their peers from across Europe, we are investing in, we hope, brighter and more capable future generations and a better tomorrow."

  • Shocker! UEFA is bringing Russian teams back into their competition.

    Sky News journalist Robert (Rob) Harris reported on the decision UEFA have just made.

    "UEFA is relaxing a blanket ban on Russian teams taking part in its competitions after 18 months. Russian U-17 teams are allowed to return - playing without the Russian uniform and anthem and on neutral pitches.

    In relaxing the ban, UEFA says its Executive Committee "once again condemns Russia's illegal war and confirms that the disqualification of all other Russian teams (clubs and national teams) will remain in force until the end of the conflict in Ukraine," the source tweeted.

  • UEFA and FIFA have not reacted to Russia's annexation of Crimean clubs for a month now

    Tomorrow is exactly one month since two Crimean clubs, Sevastopol and Rubin Yalta, illegally started in the second league of the Russian championship. During this time, eight illegal matches have been played, including three on the territory of the annexed peninsula.

    We will remind, after the occupation of the Ukrainian Crimea by Russia in 2014, by decision of FIFA and UEFA, the "Crimean Football Union" (CFU) was created with a special status. Crimean teams could only participate in the domestic championship and cup, and are not allowed to play in any Russian tournament.

    On 16 July, in violation of UEFA and FIFA norms, Sevastopol and Rubin Yalta played their first official matches against Russian teams. The very next day, on 17 July, the Ukrainian Football Association (UAF) asked UEFA to react to the inclusion of Crimean clubs in the Russian championship. There has been no response to this appeal, at least officially available, to this day. The only response was a statement by a UEFA clerk that they are "in contact with the Ukrainian Football Association and the Russian Football Union on this matter".

  • "Sevastopol", illegally started in the Russian championship: the son of a Dynamo player and the brother of a Shakhtar player in

    As already reported, last Sunday, 16 July, two Crimean clubs - "Sevastopol" and "Rubin Yalta" illegally started in the second league of the Russian championship.

    There are some very interesting characters in the Sevastopol team.

    28-year-old defender Matvey Guiganov is the son of Dynamo Kyiv footballer Alexander Guiganov, who was born in Sevastopol. Dad's career in the Ukrainian capital did not go well, as it was said, because of an excessive addiction to alcohol. He returned to Crimea, where his career went downhill smoothly. After Russia's occupation of the peninsula, Guiganov Sr. continued to work as a coach. As for Guiganov Junior, his career is also difficult to call stellar. Except that he travelled quite a bit - from Lithuania to Uzbekistan, via Russia, of course.

    And 31-year-old defender Dmytro Matvienko is the brother-in-law of Shakhtar and Ukraine national team player Mykola Matvienko. The family lived in Saki, where both brothers were born. Before the occupation, Dmytro managed to play in Olympik and Tavria. Then he travelled to Transnistria and resurfaced in Crimea again - already with Russian citizenship.
