BREAKING NEWS: Russia banned from all global sport including 2020 OIympics and 2022 World Cup finals

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has imposed a four-year ban on Russia from all global sport, including the 2020 Olympics and the 2022 World Cup finals.
WADA’s executive committee took the decision after concluding Moscow had tampered with laboratory data.
The agency found Russia planted fake evidence and deleted files linked to positive doping tests that could have helped identify drug cheats.
Russia has 21 days to appeal the decision through the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Individual Russian athletes untainted by the scandal will still be able to compete in competitions independently under a neutral flag.
