That's the trouble. We will have to introduce a new category of matches on Dynamo.kiev.ua (and in your own head). "Training match"!
Photo - uaf.uaNot a friendly. Not a test. But not a two-way match either. But a three-way match!
It turns out there is such a category, and it turns out there was one a long time ago. Not an arbitrary category, not a synonym, but a completely distinct, separate category of matches with binding regulations!
At the same time, it should have been clear to everyone a long time ago that such a match can in no way be shown. And this is stated now with such a degree of obviousness and incontestability that it was probably written somewhere in the time of Adam and Eve. It is laid down as such a proverbial truth of this world that even all the axioms of geometry will rest!
Why can't it be shown, you ask? Well you are strange, how so why? Because it's a practice match! Yes, yes, just like that, "Because!" Almost exactly as in that wonderful movie:
- And at some point I found the exact answer to the question "Why?" You know what it is? "Because!" From my point of view, that's a hundred percent answer to the question "Why?" Because!
Anyway, that's how it's presented to all of us now, like complete idiots. Or should I say, "sold! Sorry for the jargon, but for some reason it turns out (for years!) that the UAF's activities and style of work can be most accurately described by jargon definitions.
And do you know, for what reason it is "thrust upon us" now? Because there was such a fuss (and quite reasonable) in the Ukrainian community in connection with the absence of broadcasting of the recent friendly match between the Ukraine national team and "Brentford B", that it was impossible just to take it and not react. And the UAF reacted.
"What are you, like children, like ignorant ignoramuses about soccer. It's not a friendly game. This is a practice match! Don't you know that they don't broadcast them and never have?"
You may ask, what is the difference between a practice match and a friendly or control match? And now you yourself will answer this question.
So, a "training match" between the national team of Ukraine and the second team of "Brentford":
- the match is not held on the practice field, but on a full stadium (in this case - at The Cherry Red Records Stadium);
- the teams play the match in full game outfit with numbers and names on their jerseys;
- the national anthem is played before the match;
- the match is served by the referee team in the official outfit;
- all protocol events in the match are recorded.
So, I haven't deceived you? Did you manage to answer the question, what is the difference between a "practice match" and a friendly or test match? That's right: there are no differences!
Except for one thing: we are all now being "sold" this, pardon the jargon again, nonsense: "The match could not be shown because it was not a friendly, but a training match. If you swallowed that, I have bad news for you: you let yourself be made an idiot.
Coach for three teams. "Practice games." And the fans as idiots. Unspeakable by any words or turns of phrase the coordinate system from the UAF!
P.S. By the way, what about the UAF president? He seems to be absent. I remember he has been "writing" and "posting" about Ukraine getting into bid to host World Cup 2030 so recently that it was hard to squeeze into the media field. I am like this, and this, and how cool it is that I am like this! Just a victory marshal (not just over the boxes), no less!
But now, when Ukraine was thrown out of this application, because of the "situation with the UAF leadership", our marshal has disappeared somewhere, so stuck his tongue in an interesting marshal's place, that you can not find a letter from him, at least some marshal's "meow! Or at least one unfortunate photo with a heavy box. At least one!
Ah, yes, the picture won't work. At least from the England-Ukraine match. He is forbidden to leave Ukraine (they suspect him of something, like corruption or something, some cases in courts, and I think, even criminal ones). May be that is the reason why our "victory marshal" keeps silent?
