UAF Secretary General Yury Zapisotsky commented on UEFA’s decision on in the failed match with Switzerland (0: 3).
“We admit it, but we absolutely have no such result. We come from the fact that our argument would be strong enough.” UEFA Protocol.
Their main argument was that the Ukrainian side had to ensure the appearance of a new team the next day. It would be difficult to call this team a national team. Whoever came, no matter how much effort we put in, if this team wasn’t brought onto the pitch by Andriy Shevchenko, the sporting value of this match would be zero or close to it. Although this is not an argument, because until recently we were trying to meet the requirements, realizing that the sporting value of this fight would be minimal. Even in the condition they put us in.
The team had to come 100% from Ukraine, not contact the team that was in Lucerne at the time, but as UEFA’s away game protocol is very strict, this was impossible to ensure. In terms of passing exams, going through various procedures, providing a letter, border crossing, etc. Everything was impossible to do in 24 hours. If we had 48 hours, we could do it.
We always have opportunities, even taking into account all the details: who are our opponents, where is the sports refereeing. We will do everything in our power to prove our case. We will ask you to give us the opportunity to solve the problem on the soccer field. It will be important for us to protect our interests, Ukrainian football and our state, “Zapisotsky said.
Recall that the fight did not take place due to the prohibitions of the doctor of the canton of Lucerne due to the appearance of new cases of coronavirus infection in the camp of the Ukrainian team.
