Generous residents of Kiev have mobilised on social media to offer free accommodation to football fans visiting the Ukrainian capital for the Champions League final at the end of May.
Several Facebook groups have been set up to offer spare rooms and sofas to visiting football fans after local hotels dramatically increased their prices.
Liverpool are set to take on Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Kiev on Saturday 26 May.
Speaking to the BBC, Victor  A FAN said he was "shocked and ashamed" when he saw how hotels had hiked up their prices.
"Facebook was full of posts about how greedy hotels in Kiev were, and I thought there must be a way to solve this problem."
The Facebook group has over 5,000 members and has hundreds of posts and comments.
Victor says he is "really proud" of the generosity of his fellow Ukrainians and hopes people's image of Kiev will be more positive as a result.
"People are opening their homes and offering to take guests on cultural excursions and cook them local dishes. People are kind of being cultural ambassadors.
"Football is about bringing people together, and that is what this group is about too. It's about friendship."
