Akitsu Protests Carpathian Anti-Akitsu Political Statement at SIFA
by Haruto Kirishima

---

The Carpathian soccer team announced intentions to wear anti-Akitian slogans on their shirts during the next SIFA World Cup match, a slap to the face of every proud Akitian citizen and a complete disrespect towards the host and other nations in the match.

The move drew sharp rebukes from the Akitian national team. Yuya Okazaki, the team captain, expressed outrage with the Carpathian team.

"They display nothing short of utter contempt for our great country." he said "This complete and total disrespect and has no place in any soccer game. It is an insult not only against our team but also against all Akitians worldwide. It is inexcusable."

The Akitian Soccer Association has lodged a formal complaint with SIFA, demanding that Carpathia be punished for their insolence.
