Russia Is Suspended From International Soccer Over Ukraine War

The suspension includes qualifying matches for the 2022 World Cup, which were supposed to happen in three weeks.

International soccer is banning Russian teams from all competitions.

The move comes after soccer fans and players across Europe rallied in support of Ukraine.

"This is the biggest thing we've ever seen in sports, to be honest, and I do expect all the other sports now to follow suit," Alison Bender, soccer broadcaster, said.
