Sursa foto: Getty ImagesCe au făcut rușii, după ce Ucraina și-a prezentat tricourile cu Crimeea anexată și sloganuri patrioticeFederaţia Rusă de Fotbal (RFS) a anunţat că a adresat o scrisoare UEFA pentru a denunţa noul tricou al selecţionatei ucrainene pentru turneul final al EURO 2020, pe care figurează Crimeea anexată şi sloganuri patriotice. Ţinutele prezintă forma Ucrainei şi includ Crimeea, anexată de Rusia în 2014, precum şi regiunile Doneţk şi Lugansk, controlate de separatiştii pro-ruşi. Acea revoltă a fost considerată ilegală de Moscova şi a declanşat criza dintre Rusia şi Ucraina, fostă republică sovietică independentă din 1991. Totodată, preşedintele Federaţiei Ucrainene de Fotbal, Andrei Pavelko, a asigurat că tricoul a fost validat de UEFA cu "mult înainte" de a fi prezentat. Ucraina va debuta în Grupa C de la EURO 2020 pe 13 iunie, la Amsterdam, contra Olandei.
