My Take

I have a soft spot for players like Oleksandr Karavayev. Born in Kherson in 1992, the Dynamo Kyiv man covers the right flank as a full back and midfielder, the kind of relentless runner a team cannot function without. At 173 cm he is no giant, which only proves football rewards engine and intelligence over height. What moves me beyond the tactics is the weight of pulling on Ukraine's shirt during such a hard chapter for his country. Stars get the headlines, but it is these tireless, unglamorous workers who hold sides together, and I find myself applauding them every time.
