Спортивный арбитражный суд оставил в силе решение ФИФА отстранить сборную России

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has rejected an appeal by the Russian Football Union (RFU) against FIFA's decision to remove all Russian national teams from international tournaments, ESPN reports.

The Russian side tried to overturn this decision so that the Russian national team could play in the final match of the selection for the 2022 World Cup.

Thus, now the national team of the Russian Federation will definitely not play with Poland, which automatically reached the playoffs.

UEFA and FIFA have suspended all Russian football after Putin's army launched a war in Ukraine.
