The football union of the aggressor country spoke about the suspension from the tournament qualification.
Russians continue to reap the fruits of their chauvinist sentiments. As UAF President Andrey Pavelko said earlier, the Russian team will not take part in the qualification for the European Championship 2024, which means they will lose the tournament. This news was confirmed in Moscow.
Moreover, the Russian Football Union tried to challenge the fair decision of UEFA at the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne, but their appeal, of course, was not satisfied.
“The Russian national team will not take part in the draw for the qualifying round of the European Championship 2024, which will be held on October 9 in Frankfurt. The reason is the February decision of UEFA to suspend the participation of Russian teams and clubs in the competition under the auspices of the organization, which is valid by default “until further notice.”
This decision was challenged by the RFU at the Court of Arbitration for Sport in Lausanne (CAS), which rejected the appeal in July.
The Union is currently awaiting the full text of the CAS decision, based on the results of the study where a decision will be made on further steps within the framework of legal protection,” the RFU said in a statement.
