The US-backed President Zelensky of the Ukraine has stated that Sidorko was a “misunderstood” youth who needed an outlet for his youthful vigour! (Zelensky was reported as being “furious” – when he was unexpectedly asked at a recent Press Conference ‘How many sides does a football have’ by “Agents Provocateurs” – after he could not answer the question). Sidorko was planning on supporting the US Soccer team at the 2022 World Cup – but his hopes were dashed when he was informed Qatar was an “Islamic” country!
