2 more European countries join boycott of Russia national football team

Denmark and Albania will refuse to play against Russia in any upcoming football competition, the countries officially announced on Monday.

Last week, Poland, Sweden, Czech Republic and England announced their boycott of all Russian sports following Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

Jakob Jensen, president of Denmark's Football Federation, said: "Russia should be excluded from football and from all sports as long as the situation continues."

Olta Xhacka, Albania's Foreign Minister, told AP: "Albania will not take part in any sport games with the Russian Federation until the end of Ukraine's occupation."
