The Russian "Shinnik" refused to hold a control match with the Kazakh club "Okzhetpes". The reason is Ukrainian football players in the Kazakh club. This was reported by journalist Aydin Kozhakhmet.
“Remember the recent scandal with the fight between the players of the Ukrainian Minai and the Russian Shinnik in one of the hotels in Belek? After this incident, the Yaroslavl club completely refused to play against Okzhetpes. There are also several players from Ukraine in the Kokshetau team, and the players of Shinnik considered that a brawl is inevitable on the field, ”Kozhakhmet wrote in his telegram channel.
Let us add that Dmitry Ryzhuk, Ivan Tsyupa, Ivan Brikner and Maxim Drachenko are playing for Okzhetpes.
