Dynamo Kyiv cause for hope
The first club to return to competition in Ukraine will therefore be Dynamo kyiv through its players under the age of nineteen. The formation of the Ukrainian capital will play its 8th final of the Youth League, against Sporting Lisbon, on April 10th. The match will take place on neutral ground, in Bucharest (Romania). This was possible thanks to the proposal of the owner of Steaua Bucharest, who had offered to host the Ukrainian team, taking on all the costs.
