We’re back after a break for the World Cup and are discussing Russia’s neighbour, Ukraine, with nomadic travel blogger, Bradley Stafford, who spends a great deal of time in Kiev and has travelled the country extensively watching football.

We discuss the best club experiences, how to get around, what to see and a bit of history. One thing we don’t cover in detail is the notorious “Death Match” during World War II, which you can read more on here.
