Ukraine is still going through difficult times, as the war with Russia continues. However, the nation is trying to maintain a positive outlook.

In one of the country's cities, Cherkasy, children play football even when the electricity goes out, despite the fact that it gets dark early.

The parents of the children came up with the idea of using their car headlights to illuminate the football field as much as possible, and taking advantage of this, the children successfully chase the ball.

In Cherkasy there is no power, so the parents lit the football field with their car headlights so their children could practice and have fun. pic.twitter.com/WRqMOdlrHZ
