How Sanctions Have Impacted Russian Football
It has been almost a year since the Russian Football Union was suspended from all FIFA and UEFA competitions, including the World Cup and the Champions League, turning the Russian Premier League and the Russia national football team into footballing pariahs.
So in this documentary, from star players leaving Russia to how the league and clubs revenues have all collapsed, HITC Sevens takes a look at just some of the ways in which sanctions – both inside and outside of the sport – have impacted Russian football.

Fan ID will be cancelled for sure.
I wrote a commentary yesterday, promptly deleted.
Shortly, my comment was : stop the crimes you as accomplices to your government and leaders are commiting in Ukraine and then and only then think about ways to re-enter in the civilized world to play football, be a part of the Olympics etc. Until then, you have no human right to do sport when you have deep moral sins and crimes for which you are closing your eyes, to say the least.
FIFA should sanction the United States for invading Afghanistan and Iraq violating the human rights of those citizens.
This is very interesting to notice as well. Why was the Russian League improving so much? There was a lot of investment, and most of these teams are owned by the local Oligarchs.
If anything, this almost mirrors when Italy hosted the World Cup and Nazi Germany hosted the Olympics.
Behind closed doors, the Russian economy had improved to the point where they were actually starting to invest in Secondary Assets like Football Clubs.
This kind of explains why the Sanctions on Russia have mostly been just an annoyance than actually crippling them. Russia was preparing to withstand Economic Sanctions probably since even before they took Crimea.
They wanted to force Foreign Investment, specially of Europe. Russia knows very well that Greed is a great tool. They have used it themselves, just look at all those Oligarchs.
The Russian's know that just like their Oligarchs the Political and Financial Elite of Europe and the USA is just as corrupt. So while on paper Russia is sanctioned, behind close doors there are deals and trades going on, everyone knows.
The americans are currently occupying Syria. Hmmmmmmmm I wonder why they haven't been banned.
4:59 Spartak Moscow were still meant to be in the Europa League as they won their group
Russian football was meaningless in European competitions anyway for years.
I swear "mysterious circumstances" must be like the third leading cause of death in Russia
I think there might be a link between criticism of Putin and sudden death.
Promes is also suspected to have run a drug ring with his family, good video mate!
16:00 did very little research for him. Mario left to move closer with his family and has said he may return in the future as he was burnt out in Russia
When are zenit allowed again into champions league?
I love the joke about the guy avoiding any higher than second floor windows.
I just feel for the poor Russian people I mean it's not their fault that their leader is an absolute nut case, if putting would just pull his head out as ass, his country can really be a great economic power in the world a football.
Russia will never be welcome back to European football, They should join Asian competitions.
For the record, since this video was made, Russia has dropped even further down the UEFA coefficients to 23rd, behind Cyprus, an already tiny country that lost half its territory in the 70s.
I don't remember all this commotion when we followed the US into Afghanistan and Iraq.
What a bunch of lying and hypocritical scumbags.
They didn't suspend the US and its allies after the barbaric bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, after the attack on Iraq in 2003, they didn't suspend Israel for massive violations of Palestinian Arab rights and UN Security Council resolutions. But they did suspend Belarus and Russia.
Russia are amazing at Ice Hockey. So many Russians absolutely dominate the NHL. They never got banned from playing because the sport would be kneecapped if they weren't allowed to play. They have some of the highest paid contracts in the league too.
27:11 whoever make that maps hate colorblind people
Hello! I’m from Russia. I’d like to answer some questions for English practice
America invades and bombs a lot more countries. When is Fifa banning them?
no one cares about Russia
you lost a sub after this biased report
ALLES VORBEI…… Könnt ihr euch bei PSYCHO PUTIN bedanken…..
"…back to his native Netherlands"
native
no
Russia is the most underrated football country
let the Russian Died, they want war, they must suffer the consequences
This is Bullshit. Politics & sports don't mix..
I'm pretty sure ice hockey is their most popular sport not football
I always wondered what happened to Victor Moses then I found out he’s playing in the Russian league for Spartak
Really good vid but I don't think Football is the most popular sport in Russia. It's definitely Hockey considering pre war they had the 3rd best league in the world. They also have one of the most successful national teams in the world and selling more tickets than thier football teams.
football is becoming too political. if teams start refusing to play with other teams because of political reasons then the spirit of competion is destroyed. In the future less teams will play each other because of political segragation.
This wouldn’t have happened if there was a Super Liga
60% of the world stand with Russia.
If russia was banned due to war thsn why was ukraine not banned?
I wonder will America be aloud to host the world cup after blowing up the nordstream pipeline an act of terrorism against the people of Europe or for the backing of nazi military units in Ukraine or for there presidents numerous attacks on his own people I.e mandates for the clot shot and the use of the FBI asa gestapo like military police to raid the houses of journalists
22:06 it’s like all countries have their preferred method. Falling from a great height must be the new poisoning for Russia. For Britain it used to be a watery death. Boating “accidents”, falling in rivers etc.
We're gonna rebuild Ukraine and Russia will be paying for it.
Requested Video-How The War Impacted Football In Ukraine
As a Lokomotiv Moscow, This was a great video.
You could do one about how Ralf Rangnick absolutely ruined our team fully before ditching us to flop at Man Utd.
When the war in Ukraine is over, Russia will be unbanned in FIFA and its sanctions lifted in 2030+.
