Sudakov missing for Benfica, reacts to events in Ukraine: “Surreal” | OneFootball

Absent from Benfica to represent the Ukrainian national team, Georgiy Sudakov is experiencing difficult days after what happened in Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital. In the aftermath of the intense bombings that occurred in the early hours of September 7, which hit the athlete's home, everything turned out fine, as his family members emerged unscathed.

Hours after the attack, a consequence of the Russian invasion that has been happening in Ukraine since February 2022, the new number 10 of the team shared some images on his official Telegram account, showing the damage caused by the missiles launched by the neighboring country.

At the time of the attack, Liza Sudakova, eight months pregnant, and the couple's daughter were at home; however, both emerged unscathed from the situation and are currently out of danger. In the shared video, Sudakov left a message for all those who followed the situation: “A horrible night. A bombing in our own home. Thank God we are all alive. Surreal.”

On the same day, the newspaper Record reported that Benfica was always on top of the events and in constant contact with the athlete, in order to provide all necessary assistance. The same source states that the team is already preparing the processes to help the athlete's family travel to Portugal.
