Ukrainian forward Evgeniy Seleznev shared his opinion about Yaroslav Rakitsky on the air of the program "Direct Chervona".

- My attitude towards Rakitsky has never changed. Because I know who he is. I know that Rakitsky is Ukrainian. Why didn't he sing the Hymn? Because they started to shove him for it. Why should he do what others say? He is a person and he does a lot more than some people. And this is important, this is a position. I know who Cancer is in the heart. I'm not afraid to go on reconnaissance with him. Because I know that he will give his own, as it should be,” said Seleznev.
