The dispute centers on a technical defeat awarded to Ufa in their 32nd-round Liga Pari match against SKA-Khabarovsk, which the club was unable to attend due to the closure of airspace.\n\nShmakov stated that the club is currently awaiting the official full text of the decision from the Russian Football Union's Control and Disciplinary Committee (KDK RFU) to formally file an appeal. He emphasized that the situation has generated widespread discussion and concern within the football community, with many other clubs expressing bewilderment at the ruling. There are active initiatives underway to prepare a joint collective appeal, as similar cases could potentially affect not only football but other sports as well, especially with the increasing application of the 'Carpet' flight restriction regime.\n\nThe core of Ufa's argument rests on the claim of force majeure. Shmakov insists the team was physically unable to fly out of Ufa due to the airport closure, an objective factor beyond the club's control. During the KDK hearing, alternative routes via Moscow or other cities were suggested. However, Ufa deliberately chose a proven itinerary through Novosibirsk, a route they had successfully used previously for an away match against Yenisey in Krasnoyarsk. This option was deemed optimal for logistics, particularly considering the team's dense schedule and the significant time difference with Khabarovsk.\n\nThe club director firmly rejected the notion that financial savings were a priority. The primary concern, he stated, was preserving the players' physical condition amid a challenging away schedule. Shmakov also pointed out that the regulations do not specify exact deadlines for a team's arrival in the host city. He questioned the origin of the reported 47-minute connection time, clarifying that the carrier had scheduled a full hour for passengers to comfortably transfer, a figure that did not account for baggage loading, taxiing, and other pre-departure procedures.\n\nShmakov directly contradicted claims that tickets were returned after the 'Carpet' regime was announced. He asserted the decision to return tickets was made only after receiving official confirmation from the airline that the connecting flight could not be operated. He added that both flights were with the same airline, and the club had confirmed beforehand that the carrier would wait for the connecting flight in case of a delay. In practice, the airline reportedly waited for the team for 2.5 hours.\n\nFurthermore, the Ufa official disagreed with the statement from SKA-Khabarovsk's general director that Ufa had refused a proposal to postpone the match to May 4. Shmakov argued that, considering all logistical possibilities, the team could have arrived in Khabarovsk by 20:00 local time on that date.\n\nThe club's position, as articulated by its general director, presents a detailed rebuttal to the disciplinary committee's findings, framing the incident as an unavoidable consequence of external circumstances rather than a failure of planning. The planned collective appeal suggests a broader concern among clubs about the precedent set by this decision.\n\nBased on reporting from Чемпионат.com.","news","Ufa FC's general director Marat Shmakov announces the club is preparing a collective appeal with other teams after receiving a technical defeat due to a flight cancellation caused by airspace closure.","327539717396500481","0","2026-05-06T17:45:51Z","ufa-fc-challenges-technical-defeat-plans-collective-appeal-after-flight","Championat","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.championat.com\u002Ffootball\u002Fnews-6458700-kluby-vyrazhayut-nedoumenie-iz-za-resheniya-kdk-rfs-po-ufe-gotovitsya-kollektivnoe-obraschenie.html","326257709739413504","Ska-khabarovsk",[54,57,58,59,60,61,62,63],"326257711098368000","326222707169431552","326257539962376192","326257546392244224","326257576096305152","326257613643714560","326257636301344768",[55,65,66,67,68,69,70,71],"Novosibirsk","Anderlecht","Como","Nottingham Forest","Skanderborg","Hassania Agadir","Arema FC","Ufa FC Challenges Technical Defeat, Plans Collective Appeal After Flight Disruption",[74,93,112,127],{"awayTeamId":54,"awayTeamName":55,"body":-1,"category":46,"excerpt":75,"homeTeamId":76,"homeTeamName":77,"id":78,"leagueId":79,"leagueName":80,"matchId":81,"matchName":82,"publishedAt":83,"slug":84,"sourceName":52,"sourceURL":85,"teamId":54,"teamName":55,"teamIds":86,"teamNames":89,"title":92},"Fakel Voronezh secured direct promotion to the Russian Premier League with a 0-0 draw against SKA-Khabarovsk, finishing with 65 points and a 7-point lead over","326257709810716672","Fakel","328313383835144193","326135649943949312","Premier Division","327052414882418688","Fakel vs Ska-khabarovsk","2026-05-08T21:15:07Z","fakel-voronezh-promoted-to-rpl-65-points-secure-return","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.championat.com\u002Ffootball\u002Fnews-6461438-rpl-soskuchilas-po-kolhoznomu-panku-fakel-o-vyhode-komandy-v-chempionat-rossii.html",[54,76,87,88,58,59,60,61],"326257796423094272","326257709701664768",[55,77,90,91,66,67,68,69],"Russia","Ural","Fakel Voronezh Promoted to RPL: 65 Points Secure Return",{"awayTeamId":94,"awayTeamName":95,"body":-1,"category":46,"excerpt":96,"homeTeamId":97,"homeTeamName":98,"id":99,"leagueId":100,"leagueName":101,"matchId":102,"matchName":103,"publishedAt":104,"slug":105,"sourceName":52,"sourceURL":106,"teamId":54,"teamName":55,"teamIds":107,"teamNames":109,"title":111},"326257710376947712","Chernomorets","Родина tops the 2025\u002F26 First League table with 65 points after 35 matches.
