00:19Our first kind of seven days there were hard.
00:20Big double days.
00:21We had an opportunity to do a scratch match against Ireland and Uruguay.

01:28So I'm excited to see the city
01:30Moscow, Ukraine
01:44To be honest for every Ukrainian, I think it's an honor to represent my country
01:51As I said, it's an honor and we will show you a good result
01:57It will give motivation to someone who is not enough.
02:05When there is a war in our country, sport is like a representative of the embassy,
02:15like a representative of the country that carries the flag of peace.
02:20Sportsmen have always been the first to see that our people are peaceful people,
02:33and we are only for freedom, so that we live calmly and independently,
02:40and solve all our problems ourselves.
