Russian-Ukrainian conflict affects Arsenal in European league



[ad_1]

The European Football Confederation (UEFA) has decided to transfer the match between Arsenal and Ukrainian Ursula Poltava to Kiev for security reasons in the European League on Thursday.

After the introduction of martial law in some parts of Ukraine, the European Union decided to transfer the game in the wake of recent tensions between Russia and Ukraine after the seizure of three Ukrainian ships off the coast of Crimea.

About 500 London fans are expected to travel to Kiev 350 kilometers from Poltava.

The distance between the two cities is about three and a half hours by train, a long and difficult distance for the masses who have gone too far from London to go to Ukraine.

The Olympic Stadium will host a meeting on Thursday, Arsenal seeking to win its winning streak of 18 wins.

The arsenals should suffer a lot in Kiev because of the cold weather, where the country is experiencing a severe snowstorm.

German midfielder Massoud Ozil could be in the game after losing 2-1 to Bournemouth in the league on Sunday.

Arsenal has already qualified for the next round of Group E and is eager to go ahead to stay ahead of the group.
