The UAF general secretary was arrested on the border with Ukraine. Oleg Protasov called it the revenge of the Russians

Today, October 18, the media reported that Ukrainian Football Association Secretary General Yuriy Zapisotsky has received a suspect from the UAF Prosecutor General’s Office for Criminal Cases. It was claimed that this happened this morning at the Rava-Russkaya checkpoint.

It is a question of investigating the case of the construction of “Pavelko football fields”.

The first vice president of the UAF, Oleg Protasov, has already responded to Zapisotsky’s suspicion.

“This rude morning, in addition to the insidious missile attack, there was another enemy attack – against the Ukrainian Football Association.

The Russians simply cannot forgive us for their complete sporting isolation and their exclusion from qualifying for Euro 2024, which occurred due to the stubborn stance of UAF President, UEFA Executive Committee member Andrey Pavelko.

This is where the illegal detention of UAF Secretary General Yuriy Zapisotsky on the border with Ukraine is connected. He, along with other representatives of the association’s management, was sent on an official business trip to UEFA.

Using their “Cossacks” in the Ukrainian law enforcement agencies, the Russian special services seek revenge, pressure and block the work of the UAF. Unfortunately, the national police and the UCP have not yet learned in time how to counter such “FSB cells” in their facilities.


Personally, I have no doubt that this is a Russian order, of which we have well camouflaged pawns here.

Judge for yourself: last night one of the former presidents of the football team, who could have business relations with Russian henchmen like Kozak-Medvedchuk, calls for the destruction of the UAF. And on the morning of the next day, another “Cossack”, accused of corruption and links with pro-Russian politicians of the Opposition Platform for Life, signed illegal petitions against UAF employees.

Probably, the fabrication of accusations, meaningless papers under the guise of procedural acts, in the intent of the aggressor, should discourage the UAF’s desire to address the issues of preparation for the 2030 World Cup ?! Useless calculation.

PS Yuri has already crossed the border and is on his way to UEFA. Our lawyers know their stuff. But this case is very striking. The enemy is indeed attacking from many fronts at the same time, “Protasov wrote in his own Facebook.
