“The war found me in 1991 in Croatia, in 2014 in Donetsk, and now in all of Ukraine. I am proud of this team. For me, they are heroes. February 24 was a disaster. We were with the team in Kyiv. But we organized everything, especially in relation to foreign players. Someone left Ukraine by car, someone by train.

In 2014, we had to leave Donetsk, our home, our stadium, our sports city. We have fans all over the world. We moved to Kyiv, and when we adapted, another war began. It is difficult to explain our life from then until today.

We are a team without an address, and this is the most painful thing. We played in Lviv, Odessa, Kharkiv, now we are holding Champions League matches in Warsaw. My daughter calls me, and I tell her that today I am in Kyiv, tomorrow - in London. It happens that I wake up and don't know where I am," Srna said.
