As already reported, the next Sunday, 16 July, two Crimean clubs - Sevastopol and Rubin Yalta - should start in the second league of the Russian championship.
At the same time in another tournament of our eastern neighbours, the Cup of the country, in which all professional teams start, the Crimeans will not play. For ordinary people they will voice the reason: logistical difficulties, but even in Russia it is written that the RFU, organising the tournament, simply does not want to run into even greater international sanctions. All the "pluses" will go to the FNL.
