National team midfielder Taras Stepanenko expressed his support for the Ukrainian people against the background of large-scale Russian aggression.

These days, the national team of Ukraine should prepare for the play-off match of the 2022 World Cup against Scotland. However, Russia's military invasion significantly changed the plans of all of Ukraine and its main team. Despite this, the player of the blue-yellows Taras Stepanenko believes that every Ukrainian is now a member of the national team and is engaged in important work.

"In a world without war, my day today would start with a morning training session with the national team of Ukraine. The guys and I would be preparing for the match with Scotland ...

But now our team is not 11 people on the field and all those who sit in the stadium or in front of the TV. Now our national team is all of us, Ukrainians. And our day begins with decisions on how to help and win!

Each of us is a team, from every soldier, doctor, volunteer, entrepreneur, athlete to president. This is my favorite team, "Taras Stepanenko wrote on his page Instagram.
