World Cup 2022: 'Ukrainians can't watch the World Cup'
This historic World Cup's slogan is 'Now is All' - but has the World Cup forgotten about the people of Ukraine?
Nicole Kozlova plays for the Ukrainian Women's national team - earlier in 2022, whilst the team were still celebrating winning the Turkish Cup, back in her native country, everything had changed, and war broke out.
Kozlova plays her domestic football in Denmark, whose men's national team have spoken out about some of the issues around the World Cup being hosted in Qatar and in a wide-ranging interview with Sportshour presenter Caroline Barker, the 22-year-old forward discusses war and whether the World Cup has forgotten what's happening in her country.
