Ukraine, England, Poland, Latvia, and Sweden will boycott competitions of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) involving Russian football teams that were admitted to the U-17 competition among the European national football teams with players under the age of 17, Ukrainska Pravda reported.
The English U-17 team will not compete with the Russian U-17 team in the same UEFA tournament as long as all other Russian football teams are banned from the UEFA competitions because of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Times reported, referring to the English Football Association.
Sweden, the UEFA U-17 tournament host, also opposed the UEFA’s readmission of the Russian national football team under the age of 17, Expressen reported, referring to the statement of the President of the Swedish Football Federation, Fredrik Reinfeldt.
The Latvian Football Federation press service announced that Latvia won’t participate in the UEFA’s U-17 tournament if the Russian team is allowed to participate.

Woke England again. I guess kneeling wasn’t enough for them.

England may be woke but I agree with kicking Russia out of the competition.
