For Ukrainian refugees in Germany, supporting the national team at Euro 2024 is an important way to show solidarity with the soldiers fighting on the front line back home.
More than 1,000 Ukrainians came out to cheer on the Zbirna at a public training session in the western city of Wiesbaden on Thursday, the day before the official opening of the tournament.
The crowd of mostly young people and mothers with children wore garlands of flowers and waved Ukrainian flags at the stadium in Wiesbaden, where the national team has its base camp.
