Yevgeniy Levchenko: "I am very pleased with UEFA's wise decision to exclude Russian U-17 teams. FIFA, your turn!"

Former Ukraine midfielder Yevhen Levchenko has reacted to UEFA's decision to cancel the admission of Russian U-17 teams to international tournaments.

"I am very happy with UEFA's wise decision to abandon plans to allow Russian minors (U-17) to participate in international competitions during the Russian war in Ukraine.

Huge kudos to all those countries who supported Ukraine and dared to speak out.

I hope that in the future some football associations will have the courage to speak out and something will be less politically correct.

Only together we can change football!

FIFA, your turn!", - Levchenko wrote in his tweet.
