MECHI YA UKARAINE NAUFARANSA YAAHIRISHWA KW AMUDA BAADA YA MVUA KUBWA KUNYESHA.

Ukraine's Group D showdown with France was dramatically SUSPENDED after thunderstorms forced the teams off after just five minutes.
Torrential rain hit Donetsk's Donbass Stadium before the 5pm kick-off - but the teams were hauled off by referee Bjorn Kuipers.
It was the latest in a long-line of problems to hit the tournament in Ukraine and Poland, following allegations of vile racist chanting during some games and shameful scenes of hooliganism which saw over 180 arrests following violent clashes between Poland and Russia supporters on Tuesday.

Fork lightning lit up the night sky above the stadium as one stand was cleared as a security measure.
However, sections of Ukraine and France supporters revelled in the weather and danced in the stands despite being drenched while others rushed for cover.
Despite fears the game would get abandoned and rescheduled for Saturday, it was given the go-ahead to resume at 6pm as conditions appeared to ease.
The 50-minute delay, however, means the match threatened to overlap with the other Group D encounter in which England take on Sweden in Kiev. However, that match was put back to an 8pm kick-off so there was no clash.
