Football becomes show where two billionaires watch 22 millionaires running on field

Football has become an entertainment, where two billionaires watch how 22 millionaires run on the field, president of the Russian Football Ethics committee Pavel Borodin announced, Sovsport.ru reports.

“For the first time I watched a football game in 1964 and have been in big football since then. I remember those times when 100 thousand football fans were gathering in the stadium. Football was a sport back then. In England the penitent is not allowed to the stadium and fined for even a small violation, while in Russia people through bananas and start fights. A joint disposition must be adopted and followed. Today football turned to entertainment, where two billionaires watch how 22 millionaires run on the field. Stadiums are only filled by one third. The situation must be corrected,” he said.
