          I express my gratitude to the administrators of the science fiction writer community for posting the story. Thanks to these people for supporting the idea: Lyudmila Gashina (Kazakhstan), Ramila Asadullina, Vyacheslav Ustimov, Vladimir Grave  (Russia) and Paul Warren (Australia)!

     Hello dear reader! The book, which talks about invincible comrades, has already accomplished many miracles. In this story, you will learn about the stadium, which they were considering building in the future. At least the world's leading architects will consider this option. Everything will happen with your help, dear readers.

     Dedicated to the feat of the crew of the IL 76, 8 parachute assault company and the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
     Dedicated to comrades in arms, commanders and pilots.

     He who wants does more than he who can. The words of Henry Murray are given for this story.


     A woman named Lancy was among the passengers of the space fighter-interceptor. On this day, a combat spaceship performed a flight serving the population of the moons of Jupiter. The captain of the Skala fighter-interceptor was Faskhadin Zakirov *, whom she met several hours earlier. 
     Taking off from the surface of Io, the spacecraft went into space and headed for the satellite Europa. Europa was one of the largest moons of Jupiter. This satellite was the administrative center of the community of four celestial bodies. The human race inhabited the moons of Jupiter and adapted them to support life. In very distant times, Galileo Galilei watched satellites from Earth, giving them the names Callisto, Ganymede, Europa and Io in honor of the Medici family.
     The Congressional Football Congress Europa has caught the eye of hundreds of millions of fans in all corners of the solar system. The hype raised by all the media has reached the highest point of its apogee.
     Now days the woman worked tirelessly. Lancy, like many other people, is drawn into the insane rhythm of events. In a short period of time, she met many legendary football personalities. Among them were players who are now brilliantly acting on the soccer fields of the solar system. Some of these were former players who had completed their careers by this time.
     Lancy attended endless meetings with  members and leaders of the football federations of planets and satellites. At press conferences, she listened to their arguments, suggestions, and more.  This was all connected with the main task of the Football Congress.
     During moments of short breaks, Lancy worked from her hotel room on future reports and articles regardless of the time or how tired she felt.  When she  finished with the materials, she she immediately sent them to Venus. Subsequently,  her assistants edited the articles and then, spread them throughout the expanses of the solar system in record numbers. Football news from Europa quenched the thirst for millions of game fans. The way everything went they could count on a new countdown of football time and history to begin in the coming years.   
     And also many expected from her articles on the sports complex "Universe of Sports". This sports complex was the pride of the satellite Callisto, in the open spaces of which it is erected. The long-promised article on the "Universe of Sports" was published after the end of the Football Congress and was a resounding success.      

Special issue of the Vesti Nova newspaper

     After the Assembly of the Planetary Commonwealth of the Football Federations (APCFF) was organized on the satellite Europa during unprecedented debates, disputes and agreements, they decided to hold the first interplanetary football championship. They chose  the satellite of Jupiter Callisto as the location to the host the tournament. aYour informant, dear readers, went to the sports capital of the satellite, the city of Pangea, to tell about an unprecedented building in the world of sports. The director of the sports complex Sergey Yuryevich Baykov *, a famous athlete in the past, as well as architectures Vadim Vladimirovich Vorobiev *, Chingirkhan Mukharbekovich Magomadov * and engineer Vladimir Nikolaevich Suslov * will take part in my story. Despite their busyness, they found enough time to talk about it. These people deserve recognition.
     As you know, Sergey Baykov was a great runner in the past. He achieved outstanding results in the discipline of marathon distances. In the military's language, this is called a march cast. During sports competitions, many journalists made note of him. He was one of the leaders of the teams. After completing his career, Sergey helped and taught many to work correctly during a marathon. It looked as follows: maintain a given rhythm when moving, breathe correctly, use the features of the area and much more. Sergey was an excellent storyteller. People alwayst listened to his stories with bated breath. He also knew how to have a good time and make fun jokes that amused everyone, making them all sincerely laugh..
     Vladimir Vorobyov and Chingirkhan Magomadov are not without such a quality, which is courage. It is these qualities that are necessary to create such a sports complex. It requires the correct calculations, imagination and spirit of the leaders and pioneers to build the sports complex correctly.
     Vladimir Suslov is endowed with a special gift from God. This is embodied in his innovative ideas, where dizzying fantasies are embodied in the reality of our days.
     And so, I begin to tell the story of being in the sports complex "Universe of Sports".
      Lancy, the manager of GazpromDis has authorized your presence on the territory of the Universe of Sports. “I can call you lucky,” said Sergey Baykov, sitting in his chair.
     “Yes. I am aware that the grand opening of the complex is scheduled for August and that journalists are denied any information prior to its presentation. On my own behalf and all sports fans in the Solar System, on the pages of our publication I express my deep gratitude to the management of GazpromDis.
      I think that it is best to start acquaintance with the sports complex in my office. This will save both yours and my time.”
     -“So be it.”
     When Lancy finished speaking, the aforementioned people knocked on the office door. They entered, and the director of the "Universe of Sports" introduced them. Sergei Baykov, rummaging around a bit in the table, took out a voluminous folder. He pulled out a sheet of paper on which the drawing was visible, and continued to say:
     “This sports complex was designed at the Moscow Architectural Agency on Earth. The authors of the project are Vadim Vladimirovich Vorobiev and Chingirkhan Mukharbekovich Magomadov. They are outstanding architects of our time!”
     “Sergey Yuryevich, do not exaggerate our merits,” said V.V. Vorobiev.
     “We carry out our work, like all those responsible for this,” supported his colleague Magomadov.
     “I say what I think, dear architects’. Baykov answered with a smile. “The main criterion for construction is a balanced compactness of buildings. You will understand this in the course of how we will get acquainted with the complex. The financial and material part of the project also played an important role in construction. The GazpromDis company, which is active in the field of culture and sports on satellites under took all financing for the construction.”
     He laid before me a sheet of paper with drawings. Taking it in hand, it was visible, dear readers and sports enthusiasts, the drawing, which is published in this issue of the newspaper. You can see the master plan and drawing on the website of our regular partner in this link - General plan
