Slavic community guys gather together to play soccer. This sport is the way for some of them to relax, for others the way to interact and to stay away from getting in trouble with the law.

Dmitriy is passing the ball to his teammate with such energy that is expressed through his body language. His facial concentration on the ball and his body pose shows with what force that ball will flay.

This is another try for Dmitriy to pass that ball and he concentrates to do a good job each time he hits the ball.
