Then I asked Dario one question: if you had the opportunity, even a theoretical, at least one percent, to play in Donetsk in Donbas Arena, would you take this opportunity?. Dario replied: of course !. That's where we enjoy this opportunity. We do our best to play in Kryvyi Rih and support its hometown. Separate thanks for this to our defenders and defenders.
