After the match, the Ukrainian team filed a complaint with the UEFA supervisory and disciplinary body against Denis Nevedrov, who plays in the Russian Tyumen club, and the entire national team, for unsportsmanlike conduct. According to them, Nevedrov shouted insulting words to Ukraine.

However, the Armenian team claims the opposite. the player shouted. "Forward, Ukraine." According to the information of the Armenian delegation, the tension was created by the Ukrainians themselves, who insulted themselves and made obscene gestures throughout the game.
