Central Stadium ( uk, Центральний cтадіон, ''Tsentralnyi stadion'') is a multi-purpose stadium in Zhytomyr, Ukraine. The decent size stadium had over 20,000 seats before reconstruction (21,928). However after demolition of unsafe terraces the stadium hosts 5,928 spectators. Built in 1951 as part of the Dynamo Sports Club, it was originally named as "Dynamo". In 1959 the stadium was transferred to the Avanhard Republican Volunteer Sports Society and the first major renovations took place at the stadium. It served as a home field of the society's football section that eventually grew into a team of masters (a professional club). During another sports reorganization the stadium was transferred to the Spartak Volunteer Sports Society and soon it was renamed in a memory of the Lenin Communist Union of Youth of Ukraine (LKSMU). The latest renovations were taking place before the 1980 Summer Olympics in 1980. Since 2005 the stadium is in emergency conditions. After the m ...

Captain (association Football)
The team captain of an association football team, sometimes known as the skipper, is a team member chosen to be the on-pitch leader of the team; they are often one of the older or more experienced members of the squad, or a player that can heavily influence a game or has good leadership qualities. The team captain is usually identified by the wearing of an armband. Responsibilities The only official responsibility of a captain specified by the Laws of the Game is to participate in the coin toss prior to kick-off (for choice of ends or to have kick-off) and prior to a penalty shootout. Contrary to what is sometimes said, captains have no special authority under the Laws to challenge a decision by the referee. However, referees may talk to the captain of a side about the side's general behaviour when necessary. At an award-giving ceremony after a fixture like a cup competition final, the captain usually leads the team up to collect their medals. Any trophy won by a team will ...

Korosten
Korosten ( uk, Ко́ростень, ; historically also ''Iskorosten'' ) is a historic city and a large transport hub in the Zhytomyr Oblast (province) of northern Ukraine. It is located on the Uzh River. Korosten serves as the administrative center of the Korosten Raion (district) . As of January 2022 Korosten's population was approximately Name There are different theories about the origin of the name of the city. The name may be derived from the word ''korost'', 'brushwood, bushes, shrubbery'; the form ''Iskorosten'' sometimes found in early sources is probably based on the common repetition of prepositions in Old East Slavic: ''iz grada iz''...
