What Has Happened To Russian Football?

- Today we're taking a look at what has happened to football in Russia in the year since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine and the sporting sanctions that followed.
It’s pretty mad to think that less than five years ago Russia hosted the World Cup, the globe’s biggest sporting event in terms of viewership, welcoming millions of fans from around the world to a tournament that was ultimately very successful for the country.
The host nation went on a memorable run to the quarter-finals, beating former champions Spain en route; president Vladimir Putin seemingly proved his claim that Russia was "an open, friendly and hospitable country" following concerns about the country’s hooligan culture with a tournament largely devoid of fan violence; and four years after the annexation of Crimea, which led to years of military conflict in eastern Ukraine, and just months after the poisoning of former spy Sergei Skripal on British soil, an attack which despite Russia’s continued denials of having any involvement in led to them being condemned by multiple western nations, the tournament helped consolidate Putin’s position on the world stage, rubbing shoulders with a number of world leaders and FIFA president Gianni Infantino in front of tens of millions of television viewers.
Subsequently, St Petersburg was awarded the 2022 Champions League final, and Russia hosted seven games at the delayed Euro 2020 tournament in the summer of 2021 - only England hosted more - as they bid to host the tournament in 2028. But less than 12 months after that, the picture of Russian football could not have looked more different, after FIFA and UEFA made a joint-decision to suspend the country’s national teams and clubs from participating in their tournaments following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, which Putin labelled a “special military operation.”
This has led to a mass exodus of players from the previously lucrative Russian Premier League, the national teams having almost no one to play against, and reports that Russia’s football federation are considering the possibility of leaving UEFA to join the Asian Football Confederation.

NO POLITICS IN SPORT
Imagine that they join the AFC and Zenit Plays in the AFC champions league 💀😭
The should be AFC anyway. Most of russia is in Asia as are most of its allies
@@kieronparr3403 yes but all the good Russian teams are in Europe
That would help AFC grow
@@kieronparr3403 but majority of their population live in part of Europe and sparta moscow, zenit st Petersburg, cska moscow are legendary club from soviet union. Their existence is more than 100 years so in afc . It will be weird
Zenit would literally be refused to be hosted by a few countries. Arguably one of the only clubs capable of having a more hated and despised fan base than Lazio
So America and UK should not be allowed to play in any international football either.
@JimBob Britain does not 'own' football fam
@JimBob you don't own it
@JimBob you can't just shut down football
@JimBob 💀💀💀
@JimBob no you can't do a shit
You got to also remember that some players are worried about speaking out against the conflict, with former Russian international; Igor Denisov mentioning that he fears he would've been imprisoned or killed for speaking out against the war. Don't forget, the president of Lukoil (the 2nd biggest oil company and owners of Spartak Moscow); Ravil Maganov called the war a tragedy and hoped that the situation could be resolved peacefully. On September 1st, 2022, Vladimir Putin was visiting a hospital where Maganov was receiving treatment and the Lokoil president would die later that day after falling from the 6th story of the hospital.
Very true i know the chastity of fear very well and how stock home syndrome denial plays a major role in why we choose to be complacent obedient and ignorant to these abuses , stock home syndrome denial is why we fall into these traps the they set using symbolism and badges to manipulate your passions and concerns and use the symbolism you care about to distract you from there true intentions and agenda profit above all else . Capitalists are quite nazi minded and selfish narcissists who and turn a blind eye to mass suffering or even there own internal suffering as well as people close to them .. they are just numb numb egotistical people wrapped up in wrath and anger
Ruzzia didn't reach this state in one day or one year.
I understand the situation you described; it also occurs in a few other countries, including Ruzzia's allies.
However, this can only be solved by the Ruzzian people, unless you are expecting some aliens to capture Putler.
Remember, Putler and Kremlin became evil because Ruzzians allowed this to happen, willingly or not.
@@littleb9298 well russians deserve it to have Putin as President
@@hugoumero9723 Well, if we don't consider the current conflict (I know, that's quite the stretch) Putin has been a very good president for Russia- there's a reason why people supports him through all of this. Plus, I'll be honest- I would LOVE a president that can and will get rid of oligarchs when they become a problem for the country (which Putin is famous/infamous for doing)
@@hugoumero9723 Cause they elected him? How about Americans, whose every single president in their long history as a republic was more or less a war criminal? Do you also blame them as a people for their horrible presidents, or are you just a double-standarded racist?
I always thought Russia had the potential to become a major football powerhouse similar to Portugal or the Netherlands due to its large population and the advantage of being in UEFA. It's a shame for Russia that most Russian footballers stay in Russia because if more of them went abroad, Russia would have been a lot more competitive on the international level.
Well...there are reasons for them staying, even before
Large population? Russia’s population is shrinking year by year. It’s still over 100 million people but it’s a tragedy for a country of that size
Russia foundation was greater than today
yes they have the potential to develop more than Soviet Union the past Football Powerhouse
@@Armn9999 It's still a large population, the largest in Europe. I don't get this "decline population" argument, since entire world is facing population decline except some countries of the third world. Plus, Russia just got 3 million people who left Ukraine for Russia, many of them will stay there permanently.
When it comes to 1st world countries, USA doesn't have on statistics chart population decline because of large number of immigrants since the country is still wealthy and far better than Latino neighbours, but it's fertility rate is 1.64, while the minimal fertility rate to maintain population is 2.1 children per women, which shows that US population is in decline.
@@mladennestorovic3366 bro, I’m Russian. The government is literally paying people to have kids.
Sad for the players, coaches, backroom staff, and fans who want nothing to do with this. However, this will definitely tarnish everybody who has Russian citizenship. More videos about football history, football politics, and some more features on other countries, football cultures, etc.
Keep it up, lads.
You are wrong. Most of Russians support the war and most support Putin unquestionably.
Very few in Russia are against Putin. They believe that Putin is second coming of Jesus in Russia. They worship him.
There are fights outside Putin’s toilet 🚽 because Russian people want to eat what comes out of Putin in his toilet because they think that is blessing from god. That is how Russia is.
Same with nato countries who destroyed Iraq syria and libyq
@@05tsamra u guys again w your tomfoolery?
Most of the staff are Russian. Those who aren't and don't mind stayed. So pretty much on the same side.
Check 1420 channel
@@user-yf2xi1tk3d mate these guys have zero self respect. Kremlin trolls want to eat from Putin’s toilet but then they also want to watch premier league and European football and use creations of democracies like CZcams and Facebook and Instagram. These guys are hypocritical losers. And they got no balls to go fight in the war for their dear leader Putin either. They love smelling Putin’s farts all day long like loyal dogs with no brains.
The amount of foreign players in the Russian Premier League is definitely not 45, it's way more. Krasnodar have 11, Khimki have 11, Zenit have 10, Spartak Moscow have 8, Dynamo Moscow have 8 ans CSKA Moscow have 7. That's already more than 45 and there's still TEN more teams in the league.
Some of them are loaned out, for example Alex Král is right now on loan At Schalke from Spartak Moscow
Why is usa unilateral decide the status of the world .FIFA, UN, Nato . UN, WTO, WFO, FATF etc ?????
@@pani777 Thanks brother - i am so angry with so much of USA arrogance and Soccer bosses , trying to dictatet to us what we need to do. Russia, Africa , China and our friends MUST come together and show them that we had enough of their strategic propaganda - everything is this terms and condition of politics , driven by Nato and foe...I am so tired of this !!!
I don’t think they will be playing in Europe again, or for at least another 10 years or so
As soon as the war is over, I'll be in the European competition. There's a possibility that we can compete in the Asian Games.
haha 😂 I can’t believe the mighty Malaysia makes a cameo in here
@@user-od9bp6xl2g 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@BinkyTheGoddessDivine ?
I don't care if I get hate but Russia should not have been banned at all.
Sports are sports and throughout history there has been countries at war and nobody banned them for competing.
The only time I heard that was Yugoslavia but again I will always find that unfair no matter what.
If that's the case why was Saudi Arabia allowed to play the world cup if they are attacking Yemen.
Why were Azerbaijan and Armenia allowed to play in the middle of the Nagorno Karabaj war and UEFA didn't suspend neither of them
Also kind of disappointed how Poland was given a free pass to qualify for Qatar 2022 when Sweden and Czech Republic had to play 1 more game than Poland.
Just look who is organizing the world cup 2026. It is USA and even after USA has destroyed countries like Iraq in recent times they will still participate in a world cup qualifier even after that country caused a lot of suffering in Iraq.
The issues are just as much down to practicality as much as any moral position UEFA or FIFA have taken.
Russia has pretty much closed its borders so you can’t travel play any games there.
The only other option would be to get someone else to host them, but it would only likely be somewhere like Belarus but that may have the same issue.
If UEFA/FIFA even tried to get them involved again whilst the war is ongoing then I suspect the teams, sponsors and players would immediately kick up a stink and boycott it.
UEFA/FIFA probably want them in there for financial reasons but I can’t see it happening whilst the war is ongoing and border situation remains as is.
@@MaximusOwen1 Russia hasn't closed their borders at all.
Some European Union countries have like Malta, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Denmark just to name a few are the ones doing that.
@@RevoIke I meant closed in the sense that there’s still very few (if any) commercial flights in and out of Russia now, I think Russian airlines are still banned from EU airspace and vice-versa. Most countries advise against all but essential travel there so I don’t think there’s much chance we’ll see them back in international tournaments anytime soon.
@Revolke as a russian I do agree with you I don't think the ban was fair cuz football has nothing to do with politics and the UEFA and FIFA presidents are the same people that say that and yet they ban us from every competition its just ridiculous I think because they treat us differently from other countries yes we nmay have committed a war crime but still it doesn't mean that they have to ban us for something political and not sportswise
@@SeanLamondtiger Your team fought well for that world cup spot against Croatia.
Sucks that no Russian football is allowed and the only sports Russians can shine after all of this are Tennis, MMA and Chess.
FIFA is a political alliance
Explain please..
And FIFA still says don't mix sports with politics problem lol
Even North Korea was allowed to play.
So? Have NK attacked any other country?
FIFA & UEFA banning Russia national team & clubs shows you their political alliance because those players & clubs has got nothing to do with the war.
Imperialism & the power of capitalism ruining a once pure joy that we call football.
Pathetic.
So Putin using sports politically to polish his regime counts for nothing? Foreigners still playing in Russia, like Quincy Promes, Glenn Bilj and Mathias Normann from my own country are puppets for the Hitler of our time.
Oh and you hadn't mentioned the biggest topic about russian football nowadays for ones who still follows russian football: goverment has approved a law about fan ID. It's the same system which they used during world cup, but now it's working for a top-tier domestic competition. It works pretty much the same as turkish Passolig: you need to register and give authorities data about yourself if you want to buy a ticket.
Almost every fan group of every club (except for Akhmat but it's a whole other topic) are standing against such law and because of that they don't visit the stadiums. Attendance has fallen down dramatically. Only during covid restrictions attendance was lower, and not by far lower.
So not only the quality of a game had decreased and competitive interest (because clubs don't enter uefa competitions) had disappeared, government does everything to prevent fans of going to the stadiums. And nobody knows whether the situation will change or not.
A move over to AFC might be realistic. Imagine if they win the AFC CL and they end up meeting Real Madrid in the Club World Cup final?
I mean could they even play in it? Wouldn't the fifa ban still carry over to the cwc?
They couldn’t play the club world cup because of the ban. They’re banned from legit everything fifa related
@@andrecalo4347 europe super league time
@@andrecalo4347 In the Event Russia moved to AFC FIFA would likely overturn the ban as the only reason the ban happened in the 1st place was to prevent Russia Qualifying for the WC without playing a game which Israel almost did in 58
@@TOTN17 If they qualified for the world cup some clubs in Europe wouldn’t want to face them. I really doubt fifa would allow them, but you might be right idk
Based on legislature alone, the Russia WC 2018 was the freeist thus far. Look into the law changes they made prior to the event to accomodate foreigners.
I loved the Russian team during that WC. They defied the odds and manage to get as far as the Quarter Finals.
Quite hypocritical to do this to russian football but havent seen it done to countries who have illegally invaded and done other bad things. Obviously because they have lots of money and power. I dont mind if you ban russia but i like many hate hypocrisy and two face decisions. Crying about one incident while ignoring another when it doesnt benefit you i dont like double standards. Either ban all or dont ban any. Truthfully idc if a country is at war and so on. This is football . A game where politics should be reduced
Seems harsh to punish the clubs for the actions of their government, imagine if they did this to every country that took part in an unjustified war.
That is right, like Nato cowboy agresors predators
the difference though is the way the clubs owners are linked to putin. It's all oligarch money propping up these clubs and they all bow to putin. By cutting them out of uefa and international tournaments it kills off another source of income for putin. The methodology behind it is throw enough sanctions at Russia (politically and sporting) and the money takes a hit, which one would hope eventually unsettles the oligarchy and the population into toppling putin
@@stefanijakrivaja6068that's right, get it up ye, no surrender 🇬🇧 WATP
I’m on the same page but a lot of people think it’s fair for some reason .. I understand that a lot money is involved in modern football but it’s still very unfair to ban them in my opinion .
@@RestinPesto27 , yes
Russian Football will never be the same again when the war ends. Their reputation to be fair no fault of their own is severely damaged by the war on Ukraine and it will be very difficult to attract more talent in the Russian League.
If we talking attracting talent - the outbreak of Shakhtar's foreign players is even a worse scenario
RU football teams has nothing to do with the war the club is not at war.. So far ru teams has kept a very good reputation..
money will fix everything
@@nemeking9040 The image of russia is tarnished, if you speak about russia even if it's about football people will give you odd looks.
@@emericdion If Germany recovered it's reputation after waging two world wars am sure Russian can, although admittedly it may take longer.
Everyone's "out of politics" until their house is struck with a rocket
A player wears a jersey that says “free Palestine” and he was banned bcuz apparently no politics in sports, but now they banned Russia for political reasons😂..western hypocrisy at its peak
Why is usa unilateral decide the status of the world .FIFA, UN, Nato . UN, WTO, WFO, FATF etc ?????
Very interesting
FIFA and uefa should have the same energy when it’s Israel
Keep in mind, Israel is in Asia not even in Europe lol
True. And the USA for FIFA
@@Chronicthekid they under uefa tho get your facts right mate
Or when its the Saudis? They bombed Yemen into the worst humanitarisn crisis in 50 years; but hey, its muslims vs muslims so it’s okay?
@@beastfrombradford6685 Never did I say they weren’t UEFA. I said they weren’t even a European country.
Wahey, a picture of my hometown, Salisbury, made it to EFD. Who’d have thought 😂
Joining AFC would be fine for the Russian national team, but yeah for their club football it would be devastating.
How?
@Ahenkan Somuah Players all across the world want to play UCL football, so for that not to be possible would automatically rule out Russian teams from attracting a lot of good players. The best players never went to Russia anyway, but without the possibility of UCL even good ones will prefer other European countries instead.
Plus as mentioned in the video UEFA would give Russian team a lot of money for playing in Europe, and I sincerely doubt the AFL equivalent will be providing the same level of cash, so Russian clubs will have less to spend as well, which again, makes attracting good players much harder.
If Russia joins AFC then other teams like Uzbekistan, India, Vietnam, Iraq, Syria, UAE, Malaysia, Bahrain, Indonesia for them it will be much difficult for them to qualify for the world cup. And Russia historically is European and they will prefer to stay in Europe
@@grovestreetogs5953 nah AFC better keep Russia
we dont want russia return to UEFA
@@grovestreetogs5953 There is also a possibility that Kazakhstan may have to abandon UEFA, too. Kazakhstan is very dependent on Russia and China, while UEFA cares nothing about Kazakhstan. In fact European fans think Kazakhstan is a problem for European football.

The sanctions that have been applied to Russia should apply to Turkey aswell as the have invaded Cyprus in 1974 and still have the half of the island under their law by calling it Northern Cyprus which no other country in the world acknowledge it.

Although my wife knows someone who met Putin. Putin was rafting down the river in Altai (he has a villa there) many years ago, and the guy was the instructor.
Anyone else find that disclaimer a little weird?
I'm actually amazed no one in the comments said the rules should apply to every country like the US , Israel , UK and many other more.. these countries invaded and killed millions of innocent people
FIFA says that they don't interfere in world politics ..But But But ... 😂 Give them money and they will even make Gibraltar world champion...
I sure hope the IOC is paying attention.

And Iraq will play them a few dyas from now
Iran, with its close ties, is understood, but we Iraqi don't like the idea cause we are dependent on our players who were born in Europe in building a new future for Iraq team but the people in the Federation are greedy and dumb

But still, the game for us is not great
Russian people have no problem with that, but we barely escaped the ban in our games

Q
I understand UEFA's decision but FIFA banning Russia is a discriminative decision because UEFA is a NATOs organization but FIFA should be neutral like they were when standing with Qatar when the holy superhumans (super race) were demonizing the decision
So you also think FIFA should have been neutral to South Africa during apartheid and not banning them?

Just as the USA fought in Iraq for weapons that never existed, Britain and France fought in Egypt for a canal that was not theirs.
What about Lybia's invasion by France and the US?
the way NPC's think they're so virtuous and right by getting their information from mainstream media will always make laugh
you can't ban countries you don't like if a western country invaded another country you wouldn't care
@@karookpoto7323 Whataboutism ...
Russia > Qatar
🇷🇺 Russian League > 🇺🇸 MLS 😂😂😂😂
History yes, Top clubs yes but I think a mid table mls club would win against a mid table Russian club
@@Neno_6610 True, The style of play they're familiar. Play a Direct pass, Use foreign player (most of them are from Brazil and African) and play a physical like English football.
@@chunfordunk1598 yeah a lot of Mls Teams have foreigners
@@Neno_6610 all russian top clubs - top7 would crush the best MLS team every time
@Maxi Bon That's what i said but lafc would definitely put up a fight against the top 7
Ukrainian football, unfortunately, was post-soviet and is still trash. Dependent only on donations from owners and sponsors (not many willing), no prize money at any stage, tv translation pay almost nothing. Only if you get into Conference league can u get hands on some extra cash. And there's also the scandal with Football Federations head going behind nats and a good portion of the federation's staff being post-ussr football legends turned football politician without proper stuff in their heads...not to mention that almost all foreigners left Shakhtar and the only thing the club can do is attempt to sue FIFA...
The only thing invasion did any different was wreck a stadium in Chernihiv...and some players did join the war..
The West should do with Russia what the Romans did with Carthage.
As well as what Allied nations, including Soviet Union, did with Nazi Germany.
With no reason at all, great explanation 😅
