Ukrainian footballers have been joining their own battalion after Russia’s invasion as the country’s Premier League postponement has thrown next month’s World Cup play-off against Scotland into doubt.
The top flight was due to resume but has been postponed for at least 30 days - two days after they are due at Hampden - with the country now under martial law.
It means the vast majority of their squad won't have played in a competitive game for almost four months, which would hand Scotland a huge advantage through no fault of the Ukrainians.
