The head of the Polish Football Union, Cezary Kulesza, wrote in Twitterthat the national team refused to play with the national team of Russia in the qualifying match for the 2022 World Cup.
Enough talk, time to act! This is the only right decision,” Kulesha said. He added that he is negotiating with the federations of the Czech Republic and Sweden in order to convey a common position to the International Football Federation (FIFA).
On February 25, the Union of European Football Associations announced that it would transfer all matches under its auspices from Russia. National teams and clubs cannot host international matches at home stadiums and must play at neutral venues.
The qualifying match of the World Cup between Russia and Poland is scheduled for March 24 and should be held at the Moscow stadium “VTB Arena”. On March 29, the winner will compete for the right to enter the world championship with the best in the Sweden-Czech Republic pair.
