Ukraine is now scheduled to face Wales on Sunday.
Pele said on Instagram, "Today Ukraine is trying to forget the current situation in the country for at least 90 minutes. It is always difficult to make it to the World Cup, almost impossible because so many lives are at stake. Stop the attack. This violence cannot be justified at all. He addressed Putin, saying, "When we last met, we shook hands and smiled. I never thought that there would be differences between us like we are today. '
Continuing his point, he has further said that 'it is in your hands to stop this fight.' In the same hands that I shook with my hands during my last meeting in Moscow in 2017. According to the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, more than 4,000 civilians have been killed and close to 5,000 injured in the ongoing war in Ukraine.
