Sports without filter. The Pussy Riot action was a real dream finale

And then they ran on the playground (and a he). Pussy Riot. This sprint of several meters of smiling girls (and her husband from one of them) between the stars of France and Croatia pierced for a moment this bubble, which was created by magnificent shows of football. A bubble of well-being and comfort that the fate of the world does not depend on football and that we can forget for a moment the fate and war of Oleg Seńcov in Ukraine, when Kylian Mbappe dribbles so wonderfully.

Three women and one man reminded everyone that you can not. It does not fall. This was the most important action of this World Cup. They will pay 15 days for her, the maximum penalty for "administrative misconduct". Or maybe a sweet phrase? Their friends sat in the labor camp for a year and a half. Russia. Warm people, a civilized country.

It is obvious that the fate of the football world does not depend – the thousandth match between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump in Helsinki is a thousand times more important – but the reversal of the sight and the satirical image of the satrap should be removed from the FIFA Code of Good Practice. The Federation, of course, translates into its apolitical character, and the crowning piece of evidence is the uncompromising struggle against even the smallest political gestures in football stadiums. The tough position of FIFA in this case can even be understood, because creating a universal division of these gestures into just and permissible as well as unjust and illegal is unachievable. However, FIFA loses virtue and at its own request, because the World Cup in Russia was a great political gesture. What we managed to forget was what we had in mind about the fireworks, and what the three courageous girls and a brave boy brought back to the world.
