Poland refuses to play in 2022 World Cup qualifier against Russsia

????

Poland has refused to play in next month's 2022 World Cup qualifier against Russia in a stance against Moscow's invasion of Ukraine. In a public statement, the Polish Football team says it wasn't an easy decision, 'but there's more important things than football'. Poland was scheduled to travel to Russia on March 24 and face off against their national team. Earlier this week, the football associations of Poland, Sweden and the Czech Republic advised FIFA to stage any World Cup playoff against Russia outside the country.

*Zelensky: Why did you invaded Iraq?.* *United States: Because we "suspected" nuclear weapons.* *Zelensky: So why not attack Russia now?* *United States: Because we know that Russia has nuclear weapons.* *Umm - that's some fresh out of the oven propaganda.* *Zelensky should cut the drama, cut the Staged Propaganda and go back to the negotiating table, talk and resolve matters immediately*

@stare miasro  I'm sure there are players who are passionate about the sport who'd be more than happy to take the place of those who put honour above all else, such as yourself...for the chance to play in the World Cup. They can show through their gamesmanship their honour for the sport & beat Russis that way. Most children & young people don't care about the politics involved. They just want to play. I'm certain that most adults don't even know what this "invasion" is really all about. Both of these points I DO know for a fact, and if every time there is something going on in the world athletes & artists decide to just quit...there will no longer be art or sports, or a reason to do it. Then what is life about? Politics, money & skermishes? You only live once, and have little time to play young man's games. Ignore these old men & their petty "games" they are playing; and do what you are skilled at & passionate about. No?

Russia recognized their Independence & signed contracts with both of them.* 👉👉😱😱It is an Ukrainian anti-aircraft tank...and was not intentional. When the media found out the true they never retracted it. 😱This Has Been Debunked it was actually a Ukrainian Tank. *The length of this convoy changes every time I heard it and the distance from Kyiv too, days ago was a Russian tank in Kiev running over a car and several Russian armour vehicles blown up on a bridge in Kyiv. even the death body of a Russian soldier was laying there.* Show me video footage of battles. Not staged photo-ops. This is getting so bad that I’m expecting to see a column of Russian Mechanized Armor blown-up, a Ukrainian Civilian walking up to a camera with a wooden cut-out of an AK-47 and stating he just engaged the Russians in a fierce gun battle and won. That’s the quality of the news coming out of Ukraine. In what war would a farmer feel confident enough to approach a tank, hook-up to it and run-off with it with a soldier in pursuit? Who’s steering the tank? The propaganda appears to be way overdone which is a classic signature of the 🇺🇸. 💟💟 *Zelensky: Why did you invade Iraq?* *United States: Because we suspected nuclear weapons.* *Zelensky: So why not attack Russia now?* *United States: Because we know that Russia has nuclear weapons.* France: Why did you invade Iraq? United States: Because we suspected nuclear weapons France: So why not attack Russia now? United States: Because we know that Russia has nuclear weapons 😎They used to shout: "Russia will enter Ukraine tomorrow." Okay, they are in, and now what?. They don't know what has changed. They don't understand what Russia will do next and the confused media keep Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) & the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) have both made a Declaration of Independence, Ukraine refused to recognize their Independence, Russia recognized their Independence & signed contracts with both of them, Russia provided both the DPR & LPR with equipment, while Ukraine was given equipment from the US, UK, & others, this is a war of Independence being waged by the DPR & LPR on Ukraine? But in every Live Cam of the centre of the capital Kyiv civilians are still driving around like nothing is happening : !! interesting !! *"Propaganda WAR Machine". Politicians hoping that shock tactics, blood and "refuges" will turn the global population to a Yes all at War Sentiment.* *I have never heard such one sided rubbish in my life.* *What is more likely - the Ukrainian military, who tried to shoot down the plane - but for some reason they missed?* *Or the Russian military specifically fucked with the anti-aircraft guns computer system in order to shoot at a residential building?* The MOST SERIOUS outcome that this confrontation might have is Brandon's son Hunter might have to seek Legitimate Employment THIS IS SOME SERIOUS SH*T !!!! *President of Ukraine stays to fight the Russian military.* *PM of Canada fled from upset truckers.* *Obama/Soros overthrew the gov of Ukraine in 2014 during their color revolution. They plundered the Ukrainian treasury and installed the sons/daughters of pelosi, biden, schumer, schiff, etc as heads of Ukrainian corporations, bilking and laundering money. Obama set Poroshenko as king and he set the Ukrainian army east to kill fellow Ukrainians who didn't accept their new foreign leaders. They got their @sses handed to them. The breakaway states held two referendums: The first to not recognize the foreign leaders who had taken over their gov in a coup; and the second referendum to secede from Ukraine. Both referendums were condemned by president Obama and passed almost unanimously. The "truce" involved years of shelling by Ukrainian's on the breakaway states. They begged Russia to intervene on their part and after years of enduring attacks by Kiev, Putin accepted the states and went into Ukraine. So who is Putin kicking out? The foreigners who have taken over the gov. And what did he attack? The 8 bioweapon facilities set up by the US and military targets. They didn't destroy power grid, hydro electric facilities, food warehouses, tv, internet, railway, highways, water purification plants, etc. They don't want to hurt the Ukrainians, just the goons that took over the country. In 2018 the Guardian released an article about rampant Nah-zees in Ukraine. The maiden party used to be called the nah-zee party of Ukraine until Susan Rice came over just prior to Obamas color revolution and told them to change their name because it looks bad for the US to back nah-zee regimes. Binden isn't going to do a darned thing because Putin's got the receipts on 2014 and democrats kids as heads of the Ukrainian corps, the coup, everything.* AUSTRALIA 2023 INMATE 1: What ar you in fer bud?

@miscellanyman263 Says:
Kudos to both Poland and Sweden for outlining that their mutual decision to refuse to play Russia has nothing to do with the Russian players themselves, but everything to do with the impingement upon every Ukrainian citizen's own right to live freely from unjust rule. Just as an owner of a rabid dog must prevent that creature from putting others in harm's way, Russia, too, must stop The MadMan ("Pitbull") named Putin [Natal Mercury square Natal Uranus].

how can they say it wasn't an easy decision? Should have been easier than deciding what socks to put on in the morning! I am staggered that they even considered playing...
