Belarusian footballers Vitaly Lisakovich, Pavel Savitsky and Valery Bocherov will not play a Nations League match with the national team against Northern Ireland, as they did not receive British visas. Lisakovich announced it today, November 12.
According to him, the team needs to score points, but in the match against Northern Ireland he will not be able to help the team, like two other players. The reason is visa problems.
“They didn’t give it to me, what can I do here? “They gave it to all the kids except the three of us.” – said.
Recall that the Belarusian team plays in the Nations League in the third group of League C. The match against Northern Ireland will be played on November 15. The Republic team is currently second in Group C of League Three, behind Ireland, with six points. At the same time, the Irish authorities have been pursuing a hostile policy towards Belarus for several years, including the introduction of national sanctions against this country and support for European sanctions.
