Recall that Russian clubs and teams were excluded from international tournaments by decision of FIFA and UEFA.

The Russian Football Union (RFU) later announced that it was going to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) once morest the decisions of FIFA and UEFA to remove national teams from participation in international competitions.
