      Wouldn’t the correct way be Ukraine nonetheless? Just like players in the German football team used to have their stated birthplace be the GDR.

      Must be some big conspiracy and UEFA is clearly pro Putler. Or it was just a mistake, given how other Donetsk born players were just listed as Ukrainian.
