Serhiy Tsymbalar, son of former Spartak and Chornomorets player Ilya Tsymbalar, explained why his brother Oleg is involved in organising the match in memory of his father in Moscow.
"He is one of the organisers of the match. The last time I wrote to him was when I saw that he was in Moscow. He did not inform me or my mother, did not consult anyone. We found out about it when he was already in Moscow and started giving his first interviews.
Then I wrote to him: "Okay, it's your choice. My mother and I do not accept it. How could you make such a choice? But if you've already made it, please don't mention me, mum or dad. We have nothing to do with it."
If he doesn't understand what he is doing, then you can't put your brains in someone else's head. He moved to Moscow in late August or early September 2022. At first, he was here.
I have an idea what pushed him to do this. These are the people who fooled him there and promised him mountains of gold that he would come here, and he would be driven here under his father's name, he would be promoted, and they would be promoted.
What else do they have to show? They are cut off from world football. That's why these memorial matches are being held, all sorts of media leagues are being organised, because people need to be shown something. They do not participate at the international level," said Serhiy Tsymbalar.
