THE NUCLEAR TEAM: CHERNOBYL'S FOOTBALLING HISTORY
May 19, 2021, 07:15 PM
This week, the podcast goes back in time. 35 years ago, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster occurred in the Ukrainian SSR.
Whilst the tales of the heroism are well known in the days and months after the accident - as most famously popularised in HBO's Chernobyl - little is known about the footballing history of the city of Pripyat. Despite being a fairly new model Soviet city at the time, it has footballing stories to tell.
Sport Arena journalist Serhiy Peichev joins the guys in this episode to discuss his new documentary about his new documentary on football in Chernobyl - The Nuclear Team!
