Chornomorets midfielder apologises for 'liking' photo of Russian footballer

Chornomorets Odessa midfielder Artur Avagimyan has apologised for "liking" a photo of Russian national team and Real Sociedad Spain footballer Arsen Zakharyan.

"About the 'likes'. It was wrong on my part, because he is a Russian who plays for the national team and says nothing about the war. It's wrong to support any format of interaction, even if it's 'likes'. I have already realised this, I apologise for being a bit late," SMR quoted Avagimyan as saying.
