The President of the French Football Federation, Noel Le Graet has insisted that Russia National Football Team be banished from the 2022 World Cup following the country’s current invasion on Ukraine.

The 80-year-old made the disclosure today amidst talk with the French daily newspaper.

Russia began launching invasion of its southern neighbour, Ukraine on the orders of their President, Vladimir Putin on Thursday.

The inhabitants of both countries revealed, on the fourth day of the attack that they were eager to talk it out so as to bring the pathetic combat to a standstill.

France won the 2018 FIFA World Cup after defeating Croatia in the final which held in Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium.

Le Graet said: “The world of sport, and especially football, cannot remain neutral. I certainly would not oppose the expulsion of Russia.”

Meanwhile, Czech Republic, Sweden and Poland have all failed to play against Russia in the World Cup play-offs.

The Eagles (Poland team) have been scheduled to clash against Valeri Karpin’s men (Russia team) in Moscow on the 24th of March.

And whosoever that emerge victors between the two teams would host the winners of the game between the Czechs/the Blue and Yellow (Sweden team) on the 29th of March.

Le Graet therefore agreed with the stance of the three teams who refused to go toe-to-toe with Russia.
