YAHOO News - Ukraine 'Death Match' film hits nerve before Euro 2012, May 07, 2012

"Match of Death " is based on the true story of Soviet footballers who played against the Nazis in Kiev 70 years ago
"A Russian film released on the eve of Ukraine's hosting of Euro 2012 tells the stirring story of the notorious "Match of Death" played between Soviet footballers and Nazi occupiers in Kiev during World War II.
But the film has reopened still raw wounds in Ukraine and has been accused of anti-Ukrainian bias for its depiction of some locals willingly collaborating with the invading German forces.
The film, "Match," is set in the occupied Ukrainian capital in 1941 and 1942. It is based on the true story of a team of Soviet footballers who played a series of matches against the Nazis 70 years ago."
