Greek football fans from Aris Thessaloniki hung a banner in support of Russian forces in a a match against Dinamo Kiev. Aris also won the match 1-0
Another picture of the banner from Aris F.C. form the Greek city of Thessalonica:
- Smash Azov Nazis, with the Soviet Victory flag and the flags of the Donetsk and Lugansk republics.
Clearly they are paid Kremlin agents who want Russia to kill every last Ukrainian!

Wow, doing Putler-style propaganda for RUZZIA for free, sweetie.
Oh geez, those poor ignorant GreeksThey just don't know what's going on in the country right next to theirs like we do hereDid you know Mexico actually has states?
Wasn’t there a soccer match in Ukraine between Lviv and a city in the separatist region where the Lviv fans had a huge Bandera banner? I was trying to find it but couldn’t find the right terms.
e:
found this which is similar but not what I was looking for:
also found this site talking about the Lviv football fans being nazis (CW: nazi stuff) from 2013:

Describing posters the Lviv fans made ahead of the match against Odessa:

DEATH TO THE K*KES Ukrainian football championship
And at the bottom right side, opposite the name of the local team:
K*kes Shit at the sea
And, if you have missed it somehow, the background of that banner shows the Auschwitz gate. Yup.
AND:
Here is what I was looking for ( also from 2013):

Is this a bit account cause tbh it’s kind of funny
Eh. It’s too early in the morning for me, and they’re not really doing anything novel.
naming myself hyperhimmler of kiev to remind the world of hitler’s atrocities
Dunno if that’s as much in support of Russia as it is anti-azov
The victory flag is widely used but I think the fact they carry around and put up the Donbas republic flags at least shows they understand the context around the conflict imo.
I think if they’re simply nationalists they’re at least smart enough, they could have just brought a huge Z and a Russian flag, but then they wouldn’t even be let inside the stadium.
It’s pretty easy to support the republics but not support Russia. The lpr and dpr were legitimately faced with an extremely hostile government that took power in a coup that overthrew the democratically elected government that was popular in the east. Whatever you think about Russia’s involvement if you actually look at the motivations of the republics, and the aggression of Kiev, you can easily see legitimate arguments for the Republics initial demands of autonomy within ukraine, and later the decision to join Russia after years of unrelenting aggression and bad faith from the Kiev Rada.
Όλα καλά
