With a request to UEFA and FIFA to ban the slogan "Glory to Ukraine!" On the form of our national team addressed member of the Executive Committee of the RFU Igor Lebedev.
"We have no examples, that on the football form of the players of the national team of this or that country some slogans. I believe that FIFA and UEFA should consider this issue. The point is that politics and sport are incompatible.
But we see that politics interferes in all spheres of our life, including in sports, "said Lebedev.
UEFA has already responded to the claims of the Russians and said that the new form of the Ukrainian team meets all the requirements.
"This set of the form was approved in accordance with the rules of UEFA on the equipment teams for 2018 and in accordance with the third section" identification of the team, "- said in UEFA.
