Tsygankov: It’s very hard emotionally, but playing football is our mission

The football player of the Kiev club noted the importance of charity games in support of the Ukrainian people.

As part of a charity match, Dynamo Kyiv beat Galatasaray (3: 1).

Kiev club midfielder Viktor Tsygankov summed up the match, citing the importance of such games. According to the Ukrainian, it is difficult for them to play now, but the task of the club is to raise funds to help Ukraine.

“Compared to the championship, of course, the emotions are really different, because everyone understands what is happening in our country. Every day reading, you will see how our peaceful countrymen, children, are killed. Of course, it’s very hard now, but playing football is our mission. We went abroad to raise funds for our country, for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, for the same children who were left homeless. So it’s very hard emotionally, even if you’re doing what you want, but we understand what’s being done now. ”

Everyone should be involved and help. Than they can – for the sake of Ukraine, Ukrainians and our freedom. Glory to Ukraine! “
