Notes
  1. Dynamo Kyiv played their home match at ChMP Central Stadium, Odesa, instead of their regular stadium Central Stadium, Kyiv, due to frozen pitch.[4]
gollark: hyperbolic geometry
gollark: Also, lots of things actually are subjective, like basically anything about "values" or what people "should" do ("should" without an "in order to", that is).
gollark: The Fibonacci sequence is *not* really one of my favourite sequences.
gollark: Going on about "the common source", "yin and yang" and "the dao" seems, well, pretty religion-like.
gollark: I too love pattern-matching hypothetical physicsy things to strange religious beliefs.
