" Everyone said he was a legend. I remember very well how I was awarded a bronze boot at the NSC Olympiysky stadium, when the whole team stood with a painted flag on their cheeks. He always played with a headband with the flag of Ukraine, but now I will say one thing: this man fucked up.

I understand that he works at Zenith. No one says anything to him, but words of support can be expressed. He understands that if he says anything, he will be kicked out of there..

He simply didn’t give a damn about people in such difficult times - Ukrainians who came to cheer, support him and the national team. For him, money is more important..

I am very grateful to those guys, the military, our soldiers who are now fighting on the front lines, how they lay down their lives for our country, a big bow to them,"

Earlier it was said that Aliyev, while patrolling Kyiv as part of the terrorist defense, called on the Russians not to fight with the Ukrainians.
