"Real Madrid has a goal to be the best not only in the game, but also beyond. That is why we created this foundation and helped thousands of children achieve their goals,” Arbeloa wrote on Twitter.
After the opening ceremony, the children had an opportunity to play football with Ukrainian and foreign players.
