Ukraine had blasted Russia's temporary truce as a propaganda measure to protect the victory parade on May 9 -- one of the most important patriotic events for Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
The Defence Ministry said if Ukraine attempts to disrupt Saturday's celebrations, Russia will carry out a "massive missile strike on the center of Kyiv."
The two players, whose countries have been at war since Russia's invasion in 2022, did not shake hands at the net after the match or pose together at the awards ceremony.
