No sex until the semis!
As we usually see this kind of news when the big international events are held, this time Ukraine banned its players from having sex with their wives until World Cup semi-final.
It seems that they followed the sex ban Brazil had taken during past finals.
Though the Japan team officially does not mention about the sex ban, in most sports occasions, it is not accepted for players to bring their wives or husbands under the its culture. So, it is lucky for Ukrainian players to be able to see their wives even after semi-final.
As far as Japan is concerned, the team will be gone before semi-final. So, in any case, the players cannot be away from wives for a long time, though…

No sex until the semis!
The Ukrainian team will be given a break from training if they reach the World Cup semi-final - to have sex with their wives.
The promise was made by Ukraine coach Oleg Blokhin who said he wanted players to forget about sex and to concentrate on their game.
But he told the Russian daily Sport-Express: "I will personally send my players to see their wives if we reach the semi finals. In fact I will drag them to their wives whether they want to or not."
Holders Brazil went most of the last finals under a strict sex ban, although current coach Carlos Alberto Parreira has said his players can have as much sex as they want this time round.
Ukraine are playing in their first World Cup finals and will meet Spain, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia in Group H.
