Qatar sucks and should never have been selected, but they also aren’t invading sovereign countries.

Hoping F1 pulls their races from Russia along with all other major events scheduled there.

I imagine there are Ukrainian players that play in the Russian league - I imagine those guys are GTFO right now?

I’d assume. Saw a report on Reddit that Russia told all Ukrainian citizens in Russia to leave and were booking them flights back to the Ukraine to airports that are now under siege.

Also, just read that Schalke is removing their shirt sponsor, Gazprom.

Rakitskiy was already kicked off the Ukrainian NT when he signed for Zenit. He has been adopted by Russia.

I bet things are slightly awkward right now at Atalanta as well with Malinovskyi and Miranchuk

Paulo Fonseca might get killed.

He’s in Kiev with his Ukrainian wife and said he hopes a bomb doesn’t fall on them.

Maybe, but a few Russian players have come out against the Russian invasion. Not sure if Miranchuk is one of them.

WCQs also in jeopardy. Really, UEFA needs to just kick Russia out. Let them go play in AFC with their friends the Chinese. LINK

“I hope you die the most painful suffering death, creature” was posted by Zinchenko on Instagram and deleted. He has mentioned this which has only amplified the story in international tabloids.

You can imagine who he was referring to.

He must have quite a set because people have been killed in the UK before so it’s not like he is completely safe despite his fame and money.

You don’t have to imagine. He posted it with a picture of Putin.
