During the Nazi occupation of Ukraine, a match was set up between Dynamo Kiev's players, playing as FC Start, and a German side. Kiev won. And when the Germans fielded a better side, Kiev beat them too.

And again, and again. Until the half-starved FC Start players faced an international-calibre German side, under the threat of execution ifthey didn't let the occupiers win... An astonishing true story.
