Poland is refusing to play its World Cup qualifier against Russia in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
“We have a hard time believing,” Nilsson added, “that FIFA will not follow our call. Russia can not join as long as this madness continues.”
Lewandowski, Poland’s all-time leading scorer and winner of FIFA’s best-player award for the past two years, supported Kulesza's announcement. A potential precedent for action is from 1992. Both FIFA and UEFA removed Yugoslavia from their competitions following sanctions imposed by the United Nations at the outbreak of war there.In other sports, Norway's ski federation said Saturday that Russian skiers are not welcome to compete in the Nordic country because of Russia's “violations of international law and attacks on the Ukrainian people.
Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine since Thursday requires “international condemnation and sanctions,” the Norwegian federation said.
