The Dnipro's Break Through


Again football. Or - it is better to say - my nerves again. While testing them during the FC Dnipro games I used to establish a regrettable tradition as long as this team entered its streak of bad luck the year 2008.
It is always difficult to explain smbd why do you go on the stadium when the team's game worths virtually zilch. However, there is something in this sport you cannot explain. It happens when a set of the well-payed players becomes a part of your life, when a stadium transforms into the most visitable place in your city and the result of the game itself matters less then atmosphere on the arena. So, frankly speaking, I just felt - they will win this time.
How could they lose when at least a thousand of fans organized a spectacular procession along the central city streets? The march was planned beforehand, still, in a view of the current Dnipro's results it seemed as an expressive demonstration of the supporters' will to see their club's real strength. As a crowd approached a stadium shouting 'Dnipro' & 'Dnipropetrovsk', everybody undersood - It seemed to me - smth gonna happen.
Overtime. 90 + 1 min. Maksym Kalynychenko scores a goal with his head. Stadium roars.
Was that a Break Through we all waited for?
