UEFA discredit. Money above human life. Scandal, ¿enada and hañba

. The European federation reacted so as not to be accused of not reacting at all. And at the same time so as not to hurt Russia – a country that simply supports their football business. UEFA has done nothing to make the Russians feel that their attack on Ukraine is worthy of condemnation.

UEFA discredit

UEFA has once again demonstrated that it values ​​the money that flows from Russia’s Gazprom much more than the basic values ​​of sport. The men in suits and ties made it clear that they value a sponsor beyond human life and morality, without whom today’s Champions League would not exist and who also added money to the last World Cup in Russia.

UEFA could exclude Russia and its clubs from the tournament, expressing solidarity with the attacked country and the people at risk. Instead, she acted cowardly, hiding behind a grotesque decision on sanctions that would not affect anyone in practice. Sanctions that affect the attacker and the attacked in the same way. The only words that fall on the lips are scandal, embarrassment and disgrace.

The match with Russia should not take place. Just

The actions of the football federations in the face of the war in Eastern Europe evoke empty laughter, through tears. When UEFA, due to hostilities, moves the Russian match to neutral territory, FIFA excludes Kenya and Zimbabwe from its structures, because “third parties” have interfered too much in their federations.

FIFA president – Gianni Infantino – who willingly photographed himself with Vladimir Putin and even received an award from him, talks about Russia reluctantly today. Rather than answering uncomfortable questions about his influential colleagues with fat wallets, he prefers to kick the underdogs with no money and power behind.

“FIFA, UEFA, the IOC and other sports organizations will answer whether they are ruled by corrupt rogues or by real sportsmen who prefer it to be more modest and more dignified. If they really stand for values, they should exclude Russia and its teams from international competition “-.

Now, after the UEFA announcement, it is appropriate to quote another fragment of that text: “Now every match with Russia, every play of its national anthem, will be a political manifesto: nothing has happened. a credible member of the international community like everyone else. Even if Russia loses the match, it will win in propaganda. “

Therefore, the Russia-Poland match, the play-off for the world championship in Qatar, should not take place. Nowhere. Since we are in pain with Ukraine and its citizens, let us not play with Russia that is invading it as if nothing happened. If we say A, then let’s also say B. In the face of war and human tragedies, football really matters little.
