An open training session of the Ukraine national team at the "Skiif" stadium in Lviv attracted over five thousand spectators. Security restrictions still do not allow the blue-and-yellow to host official international matches at home. But love proved stronger than circumstances. The team wanted to be as close as possible to those for whom they play: to feel their energy and support.
First, fans watched the open training session of Andrea Maldini's players, and then the stadium transformed into a space for live interaction.
"This is a very strong emotion. We take an example from you. If we take 10% of the emotions that you give us, — we win all matches." Thank you to everyone,"— began the head coach of the national team of Ukraine with these words.
After the coach's address, a show program began in which fans and the team made up for years of separation: penalty shootouts on the field, quizzes between the team and the stands, an opportunity to ask questions to players, and a large autograph session. And all this — with countless prizes for supporters of the national team.
This was an evening when the team and fans became one whole: laughing together, living each moment together, and even singing in unison.
This gathering in Ukraine is a thank you to every Ukrainian. The team cannot yet play a big game at home, but this evening we gave each other the most important thing — the feeling that we are together. Our energy, openness, and confidence. There are many more victories ahead of us. And we will celebrate them at home.
