MOSCOW (Reuters) – Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko said on Tuesday sanctions on the Russian Football Union imposed by UEFA were excessive, R-Sport news agency reported.
“The punishment is excessive, but we cannot influence it. The fine is enormous as the Russian Football Union is a non-commercial organization. There is no sense in appealing,” R-Sport quoted Mutko as saying. (Reporting by Vladimir Soldatkin; Writing by Jack Stubbs)
