"Kryvbas has returned from Germany, where this week it visited the arenas that are being considered by the Club for hosting the matches of the 2024/2025 European Cup.

Kryvbas Vice President Artem Gagarin and Commercial Director Oksana Abuzyarova visited Berlin, Dresden, Gelsenkirchen and Cologne.

"In four days in Germany, we visited four different arenas. All of them are really very diverse, both in terms of capacity and other individual features. After the previous ZOOM conferences with many German stadiums, we have identified our priority arenas: "Rudolf-Harbig-Stadion in Dresden, RheinEnergieStadion in Cologne, Veltins-Arena in Gelsenkirchen and Olympiastadion in Berlin. At this stage, it was important to personally visit, discuss certain nuances and details with the stadium management and representatives of the clubs that play their matches there," said the vice president of FC Kryvbas.

"The stadiums visited by our delegation have a capacity of 25,000 to 75,000 spectators for European Cup matches. Some of the arenas will host the European Championship games this year, so they are fully equipped and ready, while some still need to be improved. Also, arenas differ in the number of business seats and skyboxes, which certainly affects the overall budget and the final choice.

Andriy Davydenko, Chairman of the UAF Ethics and Fair Play Committee, has launched an investigation into the possible influence (manipulation) on the outcome of an official sports competition.

The necessary data is currently being collected, and the results of the audit will be announced upon its completion.

At its meeting on 26 April, the Executive Committee of the Ukrainian Football Association decided to terminate the powers of the entire UAF Ethics and Fair Play Committee, which was headed by Francesco Baranka.

Andriy Davydenko was appointed as the new chairman of the UAF Ethics and Fair Play Committee and was instructed to prepare and submit to the UAF President proposals on the quantitative and personal composition, powers, duties and functions of the committee.

Andriy Davydenko is the head of the UAF Internal Investigation Service for illegal behaviour of participants in football competitions. The 38-year-old specialist has worked for many years in law enforcement and has experience of cooperation with the UAF in combating the influence on the results of football matches.

Russian football officials are threatening the UEFA leadership again. International isolation is a major nuisance for the aggressor country.

The full-scale military aggression against Ukraine has deprived Russian football of international tournaments. The bogs are trying to find a way out of the stalemate.

Russian officials were negotiating behind the scenes with the UEFA leadership to return to tournaments. The first step was supposed to be the admission of Russian youth teams to continental qualifiers.

However, the strong resistance of the European associations stopped the hybrid expansion of the aggressor country. This greatly angered the leadership of the RFU. The organisation's president Aleksandr Dyukov accused UEFA of derailing the agreements and threatened to quit the association.

"Now the negotiations are on pause. Both we and UEFA have delivered their positions to each other. All the arguments have been given. UEFA made a decision last year that allows youth national teams to play in the World Cup qualifiers, but this decision was never implemented. We believe that the ball is in UEFA's half of the pitch. But we have the possibility of changing confederations. This possibility still exists," - said Dyukov.

Recall that the Russian national team will not participate in the qualifying for the World Cup 2026 and European Championship 2028. Russian club teams are not allowed to participate in European cups.

However, a year later he was fired from the post of head coach of the Muscovites. In 1964 Maslov took charge of Dynamo Kyiv, with which he won three championships and two USSR Cups. He is among the 50 best coaches of the 50th anniversary, according to World Soccer magazine.

Maksym Belyi (1989-2013) is a former Ukrainian midfielder for Zorya Luhansk. Belyi is a pupil of Shakhtar Donetsk, but did not play a single match for the Donetsk side.
