First of all, the Russian national team needs to participate in the playoffs of the World Cup qualifiers in March, with Poland, Sweden and the Czech Republic in the same group, competing for a place to advance to the playoffs, but now these three teams have announced that they will not play against Russia, and even the neutral position is not considered. Later, Wales, the FA and others announced that they would not play any international matches with Russian teams. At the same time, a number of football associations have called for the disqualification of the Russian team from participating in the World Preliminary Tournament.
Most of the teams are condemning and attacking Russia, and now the real profit of the team appears, that is, Leipzig in the Europa League, Leipzig's opponent in the quarter-final is the Russian team Sparta Moscow, and now the authoritative media "Bild" said that the Europa League knockout round between these two teams will be cancelled, Sparta automatically out, Leipzig directly into the quarterfinals. It is worth mentioning that Germany and Russia have closed their civil airspace to each other, which also makes it almost impossible for both teams to compete on March 10 and March 17.
There is also much attention on whether the Russian team will really be eliminated directly, and Leipzig CEO Minzruff also said: "We will continue to maintain close contact with the associations and have full confidence in UEFA and its decisions." We expect the race to be cancelled. ”
It is clear that this is very likely to happen, after UEFA decided not to allow Russia to play international matches on its territory, but to choose the neutral position. The situation is not considerable, so UEFA is highly likely to disqualify Russian teams, and Leipzig from the Bundesliga will undoubtedly be the biggest beneficiary.
In addition to the Europa League level, clubs such as Manchester United and Schalke 04 have announced the early termination of cooperation with Russian companies. The Champions League final has also been decided not to take place in St. Petersburg, and the venue has been changed. There is also the women's football level, England does not want Russia to participate in the Women's European Championship. Obviously, european football is one-sidedly attacking Russia.
