Brought a tear to my eyes as well. That’s the beautiful game.
For everyone wondering what that does; a simple gesture, involving various football clubs, brings the topic to the forefront of the football world, which in turn keeps it fresh in everyone’s minds even when getting lost in the game, which in turn encourages pro-Russia sponsors etc to either back down, back away or maybe react.
An act of solidarity around the world may put pressure on any Russia backed owners (in fact, it has, if you look at the Abramovic news).
Not many things unite the English people more than this cause. Great use of their platform by the players 👍
Well, now I’m in tears, too! What a grand gesture by everyone!
Sports divide many of us in small ways, but you’ve gotta love it when they bring us together in the big ways.
That’s heartbreaking
That’s pure class.
Very curious what will happen with World Cup qualifying. I know football is the last thing on peoples mind right now. both countries are in this next round of qualifying. even if corrupt fifa isn’t willing to take action, can’t uefa ban Russia from competing in qualifying?
Slava Ukraina!
Man this is also heartbreaking to watch for some reason
I got goosebumps
what do the Russians think when they see the vast majority of the world is agaisnt them? I know it seems liek an overwhelming majority of Russians are against the invasion, but maybe that’s just from what I’ve seen on Reddit. Are there are a significant portion of them that are pro-invasion?
What a beautiful display of unity and support
Great showing of unity and support.
I fucking love this game. There’s nothing like it. Brothers and sisters all around.
A week ago, I don’t even know much about Ukraine. And now I’m so emotionally invested in this country. I’ve cried so much with every video about Ukraine. I want nothing but the best for Ukraine and Ukrainians. 🙏🇺🇦
This is what it is all about.
Making me want to cry aswell
I’m not crying, you’re crying
Brings a tear to my eye! How hard that must be to not be at home with your brothers and sisters at a time like this!
Let’s see Chelsea do this tomorrow.
Classy. Just absolutely touching.
That banner at 0:44, Everton reimbursed the fans that made that banner the cost of the banner as a show of support.
For those interested in helping Ukraine please go to r/Ukraine and r/volunteersforUkraine. People are planning trips in groups to join the Ukrainians in the war. The government there is providing weapons to ANY one who can come. Combatant experience is preferred. If you wish to go please read this first:

Damn, I’m in tears and I don’t even watch football. It’s just so wonderful to see an international community come together like this.
Sport, can divide people in seconds. But can bring us all back together just as quickly. Why I love all sports so much.
The clubs however are not so good. USM back Ev and Yemen destroying Abu Dhabi the other. Sports washing in full effect.
can’t imagine what the Ukranian football players were feeling, thousands of miles from their country under war, and looking at their flag’s colors in the stands
That was beautiful but what is that announcer on about? He says 75 years of peace in Europe broken. Sorry, but did he forget the Balkans exist??? Did the fighting in Georgia not make it on his radar? Kinda forgot about Chechnya?
