Istanbul plays host to the Champions League final tonight just months after the horrific earthquake that killed tens of thousands of people in Turkey.
Our reporter Adam Leventhal went to the country to see how it is recovering from the worst natural disaster in its modern history.
In part one of our two-part series, Adam visits Hatayspor; the club Christian Atsu played for before he tragically passed away in the quake.
