Ukraine's football association said on Thursday it was in talks with Uefa to reverse a decision by the European football governing body to remove a slogan from Ukraine shirts after protests from Russia.

Ukraine's football association is in talks with Uefa to keep in place the slogan on its jerseys," the association's press service told AFP, after Uefa said the message Glory to the heroes", stitched on the inside of the shirt collar, was clearly political in nature". The association said that earlier Uefa had approved the new kit and every element of it, including the slogan".
