Marseille midfielder Ruslan Malinovsky commented on the scandalous episode after the French championship match with Monaco.
Ruslan Malinovsky“I want to apologize to the Ukrainians for the response to the gesture of the Monaco player. I understand that it would be better if I bypassed him, but it so happened that he came up to me and greeted me. After the game, all the players shake hands with each other, and I did it mechanically.
I understand how important this is for you at the moment, but those insults and hatred for a second of guilt, compared to what we have been doing for Ukraine and Ukrainians since the beginning of the war, cause me unpleasant feelings and doubts about your sincerity when you send me words of support.
In an individual sport, I would not even go out to play against a Russian athlete, since I fully support the removal of Russians from international competitions. Glory to Ukraine!” Malinovsky wrote on his Instagram page.
