It is easy to forget that in June 2021 the Ukrainian Football Association was ordered to remove the words Glory to the Heroes from its European Championship shirt after Russia yes, that Russia had complained it found the slogan to be upsettingly aggressive and militaristic in tone.
As of last weekend we have another plot twist. Again it's Ukraine, and again this is a case of sport showing us what is already there; war minus the shooting, but also, it has to be said, quite adjacent to the shooting.
