UA Football player of the month award

Every month the portal picks the best player of the month based on the voting of its readers, editors and football experts. The first results were published on 4 April 2013.[4] The award was established almost simultaneously with a similar award that was introduced by another Ukrainian football web-portal "Football" and a Ukrainian weekly "Football" in March 2013.[5]

gollark: Filesystems not doing things atomically causes so many problems.
gollark: Well, that seems like a neat idea.
