Football dreams & Olympic were realised at the #ChernihivStadium, home to the Desna Football Club, until a #RussianMilitaryStrike destroyed the eastern stand in Mar 2022 - days later, the pitch too! Built on the site of a 19th CE city garden, football heroes like #AndriiYarmolenko started their careers here. Now decades of sport ambition are over #UkrainianCultureUnderAttack
