Chicken Kiev, is from France, and renamed by New York restaurants trying to encourage Russian diners.

Ukraine is the largest country in Europe.

Ukraine has the distinction of being the geographical centre of Europe.

The Ukrainian language was rated the 3rd most beautiful language, in 1934, behind French and Persian; it was also rated the 2nd most melodious, behind Italian.

Arsenalna, along Kyiv’s Sviatoshynsko-Brovarska train line, is the world’s deepest metro station at 105.5 meters below the ground.

Ukraine’s one of the youngest countries in the world.

Ukrainian people wear wedding rings on the right hand.

Card games are taboo.

Ukrainian women are considered to be among the most beautiful ladies in the world. Having been, I would say this is a fair shout.

The first gas lamp was invented in Lviv. The name of the inventor was Ignatiy Lukasevych. The year when the gas lamp saw the world was 1853 and the same year it was used to conduct the surgery.

The capital of Ukraine is Kiev, this city was founded even earlier than Moscow, Tokyo, Berlin, New York, Dublin, Los Angeles and other cities. Kiev was founded in 482.

The McDonald's in Kiev, is the third most visited McDonald's in the world.

The City of Lviv has the highest number of restaurants per person in the world.

“O Sole Mio” the world-famous song was composed in Ukraine.

The popular Easter egg tradition originated in Ukraine.

The world’s first constitution was drafted and introduced in 1710 by Ukrainian Hetman Pylyp Orlyk.

Ukrainians love drinking horilka, which is a local variant of the famed vodka. Locals often flavor this national drink with chilli pepper to give it a bit more punch.

Locals designed the world’s heaviest aircraft, the An-225 Mriya.

When Ukraine declared its independence from the USSR, it had over a thousand nuclear warheads and the third largest nuclear potential after Russia and America. On its own initiative, Ukraine refused to hold onto the third largest arsenal of nuclear weapons in the world and handed the warheads and missiles over to Russia and destroyed the silos. In return, Ukraine was compensated financially for disarmament and guaranteed security from other the nuclear powers.

Marching on .. Raheem to get another and Harry to get one .. regulation 2-0 ... got another good feeling and no nerves ... thats worrying !
 
Kane seemed to come to life in the last 20 minutes against Germany. I can see him getting another on Saturday, we're building momentum and confidence just at the right time.
 
I have no idea what will happen, but I am confident we will be more positive. We had 2 proper attempts at Germany from open play on Tuesday and scored them both. Before the goals, we looked nervous and hesitant. If we take the positives from the Germany game, we should be fine against Ukraine. Massive game it being an away game in practice.

I travelled the length of Ukraine via train from Kiev to Odessa. Had a diversion to Moldova and a country called Transnistria (Russian enclave which everyone denies exists). Fascinating country.
 
Like with Germany we should have enough to beat them, as was finally proved against our last opponents. But as we know in knockout football anything had happen, but as long as we play well then we should come out on top.

I saw a nice facebook posting from Wally Jude, who many will know greeting players and supporters at both Ferriby and City. He said he told Harry Maguire when he was playing for the U23's at Ferriby that he would play for England one day. Maybe an obvious statement, but typical of Wally to be always positive and have something nice to say.
