Ukraine star Oleksandr Zinchenko insists that his fellow countrymen "left everything on the pitch" during their dramatic 1-0 defeat away at Wales - ending their World Cup hopes.
The Manchester City star was one of many Ukraine players who can come away from the World Cup qualification process with immense pride - particularly amid the backdrop of heartache and suffering going on in their home country after the recent Russian invasion.
Zinchenko has been a perfect example of leadership in the face of adversity and constantly faced the media to discuss the need for peace and call for unity in the face of such heart-breaking struggle.
