On the third set of the new game form of the national team of Ukraine, the slogan "Glory to Ukraine". UEFA approved the inscription, says the president of the Ukrainian Football Federation Andrei Pavelko.

"FFU appealed to UEFA, received approval and placed the inscription" Glory to Ukraine ". We got good, such a slogan in support of our team, is approved.

This is our official support of the team, our pride. To "Glory to Ukraine" thundered around the world, so that these words always supported our players on the football field and beyond it, "explained Pavelko, quoted by the channel" Football ". In the meantime, Russia is already "burning" from our T-shirt. Member of the Executive Committee of the Russian Football Union Igor Lebedev criticized the form of our team "We do not have examples that on the football form of the players of a country of the national team some slogans. There is a very specific set of things that can be applied. This is the name of the country, the name of the player, his number and the coat of arms of the country, but there are no slogans on the football form. I believe that the relevant FIFA or UEFA committee should consider this.

Speech about the fact that politics and sport are incompatible, goes every day. But, nevertheless, we see that, unfortunately, all the same, politics invades all spheres of our life, including sports, "Lebedev said on the air of the radio station" Says Moscow ".

Moreover, Lebedev disingenuous, because in the official form of the Russian national team at the World Cup 2018 was placed the slogan "Together for Victory".

Note that all the inscriptions and prints on the game form must be agreed and approved by FIFA or UEFA - depending on the organization under the aegis of which organization is the tournament.

Recall, at the World Cup-2018 in Russia, attacked the defender of the Croatian national team Domagoi Vid for the video with the words "Glory to Ukraine".

Vida played for Kiev Dynamo, and together with Ognen Vukojevic, who now works in the structure of "white and blue", they wrote greetings to their friends. The video got into the social network and for some reason made the Russians very angry.
