After seeing UEFA ban Russia from participating in the European Cup, many fans protested, because banning Russia from participating in the European Cup will inevitably lead to a sharp decline in the excitement of the European Cup, and even lead to a series of conspiracy theories.
1. It is unreasonable for UEFA to prohibit Russia from participating in the European Cup draw. If Russia does something harmful to the development of European football, UEFA can indeed severely punish Russia, but at present Russia has not done anything harmful to the development of football, so it is unreasonable for UEFA to ban Russia from participating in the European Cup. If Russia is forcibly banned from participating in the European Cup, UEFA will lose enough authority.
Second, UEFA banned Russia from participating in the competition, which would lead to unfair competition. As a European country, Russia should be able to participate in the European Cup. Unexpectedly, UEFA banned Russia from participating in the European Cup on a ridiculous excuse. If UEFA prohibits a country's athletes from participating in official competitions under any pretext, all UEFA competitions will lose fairness.
3. UEFA prohibits Russia from participating in the competition, which will make the competition lose its purity. Many sports events try to avoid the influence of politics on sports development. Although it is really difficult to do this, as long as we work hard, we can make the game highly pure. However, UEFA has made a clear statement on the Russian-Ukrainian issue and made a decision to ban Russia from participating. It can be said that UEFA's move is to let politics influence the development of sports to the greatest extent.
