Ukrainian gymnast Lilia Podkopaeva brilliantly shared archival highlights from her childhood and youth, which she grew up in the city of Donetsk. These photos of young Liliya training at the Dynamo sports association are rare and meaningful for rich people, write WomanEL.
It is clear that Donetsk will no longer be a special place for Lilia Podkopaeva. It was here that her career in gymnastics began, and it was here that she made her first sports career and achievements. Vona guessed about the important moments of her life when she was still a child and grew up, like a lot of goiters in her native place.
Donetsk is a place of childhood that will forever be lost in my heart. It was here, at the Dynamo sports association, that I earned my first living in the world of gymnastics and made my first world. Ale Donetsk for me is not just a sport, but a Shakhtar practice, as I always saw in my eyes. I spent my entire life working at the Gliboka mine, and I went down into the mine more than once to understand how important the work of miners is… Today is a special day – the Day of the Place and the Day of the Miner. I want to greet all miners and thank them for their strength, courage and self-devotion. You are true heroes, the pride of our region. Donetsk will forever be a part of Ukraine, and I believe that we will once again be free and peaceful.
