Former Dynamo Kyiv goalkeeper Svyatoslav Syrota, who joined the Armed Forces from the first days of the war, recalled what he dreamed of last March.
Sviatoslav Sirota"Nostalgia.
In March 2022, we were travelling east on a train. Of course, we did not know the exact place, but we knew the direction.
We are all human, and we have thoughts and dreams. Sometimes very naive ones. Sometimes they are impossible to fulfil quickly. I remember exactly what I was thinking and dreaming about.
Back then, we had naive feelings that we were going to come and not defend ourselves, but liberate our country. In my dreams, I saw in detail how we were liberating Luhansk. I ask the commander to let me come to the stadium, where I play football with the kids and they shoot a penalty. And I record Reels, in which I address Yuriy Vernidub: we have liberated your city and your home stadium, you can lead your native Zorya to European competitions again.
Only later did I find out that he was also in the Armed Forces, and then took over Kryvbas. But that was later," Syrota wrote on his Facebook page.
