The Ukrainian Football Association on its official website announced the signing of a memorandum of cooperation with the Latvian Football Federation. It is now time for the official visit of UAF President Andriy Shevchenko to Riza for the requested service of the LFF.
Andriy Shevchenko, who also cooperated with Ukrainian children in Latvia, who were deliberately deprived of Ukraine through Russian aggression, confirmed the purpose of this memorandum.
" We are sending our children to Latvia for health care. Children who will be collected from regions affected by fighting, such as Kharkiv, Sumy, Donetsk. We have signed such memorandums in many countries, this is a very important document so that we can give our children the opportunity to switch from constant terrorist attacks and worries to a normal life.
Today football in Ukraine is a very important element in the life of our people. Through football we can give children the opportunity to take up sports.
Our troops also get sick, but they themselves play football.. I think that football has ignited the life of the whole world - all those that unite the countries. Therefore, it is not only the political bridges that are important, but also the sporting ones, which we will soon be,” said Andriy Shevchenko.
We guess that on the field of the LNK Sporta Parks arena, the youth team of Ukraine will compete with the Serbian team as part of the Euro 2025 (U-21) selection. Cob of gris - about 19:00 Kyiv time.
