The Death Match of Kiew
[Info] [GM] [BM] [YM]
By: Dania
@ 2010-06-21 10:46:35
The Death Match was a non-official association football match in 1942 between Soviet POWs — former professional footballers (mostly from Dynamo Kyiv) — and soldiers of the Nazi Germany Wehrmacht. The Soviet players defeated the Germans, despite knowing what the consequences of defying them would have been. Many of the Soviet players were later arrested and sent to a labour camp where some of them died.

The match:
The German Luftwaffe team Flakelf asked for a re-match, which was planned on 9 August at Zenit stadium. An SS officer was appointed as referee, and FC Start were aware that he would be biased against them. Some anonymous sources warned FC Start of possible punishment if they did not lose the game to the Germans. Despite this, the team decided to play as always. They also refused to give a Nazi salute to their opponents before the match.

As anticipated by FC Start, the Nazi referee ignored Flakelf fouls. The German team quickly pressured the goalkeeper, Trusevych who, after a repeated physical challenges, was kicked in the head by a Flakelf forward and left groggy. While Trusevych was recovering, Flakelf went one goal up.

The referee continued to ignore FC Start appeals against their opponents' violence. The Flakelf team reputedly continued to attempt to intimidate FC Start, allegedly going for the man not the ball, shirt-holding, and tackling from behind, as well as going over the ball. Despite this FC Start scored with a long shot from a free kick by Kuzmenko. FC Start's Goncharenko, against the run of play, is said to have dribbled the ball around almost the entire Flakelf defense finishing by placing the ball into in the German net to make the score 2-1. At half-time, FC Start were yet another goal up.

The second half was almost an anti-climax. Each side scored twice. Towards the end of the match, with FC Start in an almost unbeatable position at 5-3, Klimenko, a defender, got the ball, beat the entire German rearguard and walked around the German goalkeeper. Then, instead of letting it cross the goal line, he turned around and kicked the ball back towards the centre circle. The SS referee blew the final whistle before the ninety minutes were up.

Aftermath:
A week later on 16 August, Start defeated Rukh again, this time 8-0. Soon after that, a number of the FC Start players were arrested and tortured by the Gestapo, allegedly for being NKVD members (as Dynamo was a police-funded club). One of the arrested players Mykola Korotkykh died under torture. The rest were sent to the Syrets labour camp, where Ivan Kuzmenko, Oleksey Klimenko, and the goalkeeper Mykola Trusevich were later killed in February 1943. The few survivors included Fedir Tyutchev, Mikhail Sviridovskiy and Makar Goncharenko who are responsible for the popularisation of this story in Soviet popular culture.

In the movies:
The story also inspired two non-Soviet films: 1961 Hungarian film drama Két félidő a pokolban and 1981 American film Escape to Victory.]]>

Built in 1951, this stadium was dedicated to Joliet veterans from WWI, WWII, and the Korean War. It was built for college and high school football games and track and field events. In recent years, it was used by the University of St. Francis, the Joliet Junior College, the Joliet Catholic Academy, the semi-pro Joliet Buccaneers, and local youth football teams.

In 2009, the 10,000 seat stadium is set to undergo renovations, which include installing artificial turf, a new scoreboard, and an Olympic-style running track.

From 1952-1986, the 1/4 mile running track surrounding the football field held 427 midget auto racing events on Saturday nights. Originally, the track surface was cinder, which was popular for track and field back in those days. It didn't work well for auto racing, as racers used open-faced helmets and were pelted by the pieces of cinder.

In 1953, a clay surface was put over the cinders. The track was paved in 1964 and resurfaced in 1979. The United Auto Racing Association (UARA) operated here from 1952-1980. The World of Outlaw Midgets raced here from 1981 until they ceased operations in August 1986. Karts and mini-stock cars raced here from 1990-1999.

On September 11-12, 2009, the track held a farewell race weekend featuring UMARA midgets, dwarf cars, and karts. Dalton Armstrong won the final race held here before the track was removed in favor of an Olympic-style running track.]]>

16,600 seat high school football stadium built in 1939. Additional temporary seating raises the capacity to 19,000. It is home of the Massillon Washington High School Tigers. The Tigers have won 22 state titles and have been the Associated Press National Champions 9 times.

The stadium is named after Paul Brown, a former Tigers coach (1932-40), who went on to coach at Ohio State University, and the NFL's Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals. In 1967, he was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in nearby Canton. He passed away in 1991.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/paul-brown-tiger-stadium/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/paul-brown-tiger-stadium/ Thu, 24 Jul 2008 00:41:17 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/paul-brown-tiger-stadium/ 40.79348100 -81.49970500 <![CDATA[Central High School Eagles]]>

Formerly known as Anderson Field. Located just east of Tremper High School. The field was renamed in honor of 1954 Heisman Trophy winner Alan Ameche, a Kenosha native.

Ameche played six seasons with the Baltimore Colts, earning the NFL Rookie of the Year award in 1955 and scoring the game winning touchdown in the 1958 NFL Championship Game in overtime.

The field not only features local high school football games, but has been home to a few semi-pro, minor league, and women's football teams.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/installing-artificial-field-turf-at-ameche-field/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/installing-artificial-field-turf-at-ameche-field/ Thu, 15 Mar 2007 14:56:37 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/installing-artificial-field-turf-at-ameche-field/ 42.54850900 -87.83830700 <![CDATA[Sheikh Zayed Stadium]]>

Sheikh Zayed Stadium is a multi-use stadium in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It is currently used mostly for football matches and can also stage athletics. It is named after the late Shaikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founder and first president of UAE. The construction of the stadium was completed in 1979 and it holds 65,000 people. It hosted many international and regional events such as GCC football tournament in 1982, 1994, and soon in 2007. Also it was a venue for the Asian Federation Cup final in 1996 between the host UAE, and Saudi Arabia when the latter won the championship from the penalty spot. The last major event held in this stadium was the opening and final match of the FIFA Youth World Cup in 2003. Every year, the UAE cup final is played there too.]]>

The stadium is the home field of West Mesquite and other local high schools in the Mesquite Independent School District.

With 20,000 seats, it's larger than many U.S. college stadiums. If Texas spent as much money on students as they do on high school football stadiums, I wonder if they'd be able to handle so many successful H.S. graduates... or do they just think it's good to have a certain percentage of failures, criminals, methheads and pregnant teens?

The radio tower is 415 feet tall, built in 1992 to replace the original 250 foot, 3,000 watt tower standing since the radio station's launch in September of 1984. KEOM (heard on 88.5 FM in the Mesquite area) is a "noncommercial, educational, community service station" with 61,000 watts and 24-7-365 programming, owned & operated by the Mesquite Independent School District. Students can become DJs if taking Radio Communications classes given by MISD. (Now that's money well-spent!)]]>

This 20,000 seat public school district stadium for football and track was designed by Preston M. Geren. General Construction Co. of Fort Worth was the contractor. The facility is Art Deco styled and was named in memory of E.S. Farrington, a long time superintendent of the Fort Worth Independent School District. The west grandstand facade fronting on University Drive features a monumental central bay. The columns are fluted and the capitals have stars on them. There are also panels that depict athletes. Additional Art Deco detailing can be found in the ticket booths and on the concrete piers of the decorative fence that encircle the facility.]]>

"Named after a prominent Las Vegas hotel owner and gaming pioneer, the facility has evolved over the years not only in size (from 15,000 to 32,000 and to 40,000 seats) but in the way it handled event bookings, marketing, and sponsorship opportunities.

Sam Boyd Stadium is home to the UNLV Rebel Football team, the Las Vegas Bowl and the annual AMA Supercross Series Finals and the annual Monster Jam World Finals.

The Grateful Dead played the Sam Boyd Stadium for five consecutive years from 1991 to 1995, all of which have set records for the top grossing and highest attended shows. The band’s final performance in Las Vegas (1995) holds the #1 position, with 125,533 fans attending the concert which grossed over $3.7 million.

Other music superstars who performed at the stadium include the Eagles, Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, and the Lollapalooza tour. U2 and Paul McCartney kicked off their world tours at the facility, drawing record crowds as well as international media attention.

The stadium celebrated its 25th anniversary in the fall of 1996 by hosting the UNLV vs. Wisconsin football game with 41,091 fans attending the event, setting the record for the state's largest attendance at an outdoor sporting event.

Beginning in the fall of 1998, the Sam Boyd Stadium underwent a major $17.5 million renovation and expansion project, adding 9,000 seats to the stadium and reconfiguring the current seating capacity to 40,000. The improvements included a new concourse, upgraded and expanded restrooms, upgraded concession stands, a new press box, repaved parking lots, upgraded ADA access, and a new scoring system as well as a new playing surface."]]>

Off-campus home field of William Horlick High's football and baseball teams. Opening prior to 1922, this site first featured just a baseball diamond and then later in the century the property was reconfigured for two sports by repositioning the baseball field and adding the 8,500 seat football stadium (which is also the home field of the Racine Raiders of the North American Football League.) Before reconfiguration, from 1943-1950 Horlick Field was the home of the Racine Belles of the All American Girls Professional Baseball League which was immortalized in the 1992 Tom Hanks movie A League of Their Own.]]>
