Ukraine s controversial Euro 2020 shirt is emblazoned with a map of the country featuring Russian-annexed Crimea. Russian lawmakers linked the two slogans together as being used by Ukrainian nationalists, some of whom fought with the Nazis against the Soviet Union in World War II. UEFA said it approved “Glory to the heroes” last December, separate from the other slogan which was allowed two years earlier. “Following further analysis, this specific combination of the two slogans is deemed to be clearly political in nature, having historic and militaristic significance,” UEFA said. Euro 2020 kicks off on Friday (Saturday NZT), though Ukraine and Russia cannot play each other unless both advance deep into the 24-nation tournament.
