The Russian representatives of each sports discipline continue to suffer the great consequences of Vladimir Putin’s war attacks on Ukraine. On this occasion, the Bild portal announced that the Spartak Moscow club will be eliminated from the UEFA Europa League, a competition that will return in two weeks with the rounds of the Eighth Final.
If materialized the elimination of the Russian team, the Germans RB Leipzig will advance to the Quarterfinals without having played a game, much less, without having faced another club in the round of 16.
Regarding the Germans, since their next rival in the second most important competition in European football was revealed, there was uncertainty and certain doubts about stepping on Russian soil in the second leg scheduled for 17 of March.
On the other hand, the decision to separate the Russian club from a new final phase of this contest is due to a forceful response against the war attacks and the difficult situation that the people of Ukraine are experiencing.
Likewise, it is becoming clear that Russia will have a very difficult time living great sporting moments in each of its disciplines, at least for now. Because the big organizations are not willing to step on their land regardless of losing important commitments.
