No one is talking about Zenit. They played a great game yesterday. After such a game, I even forgot about Salavat's "game"...

It was a dangerous game, I won't argue. And the fact that it was the first goal makes the issue even more fundamentally important, of course - let's say, it "turned the tide" of the game. But why immediately turn everything into a "province vs. capital" issue...? Aren't there enough cases of refereeing blunders in derbies? If the referee makes a gross mistake, it "means someone needed it to happen"... And the question, of course, is not about Moscow snobbery, it's a much more expensive issue, so to speak.

By the way, here's a clear example of a capital-province game, the match between Terek and CSKA. Again, there were two obvious fouls that should have resulted in penalties for CSKA, but the referee's whistle didn't sound. The fouls were a handball in the penalty area, which clearly prevented the ball from going into the goal, and a foul on an opponent in the penalty area. This is what judging is like with capital clubs. They are monsters, not referees.:smile29:

Well... now I have an answer to the question of why CSKA "lost" to Terek... nonsense!

Boots, this is high politics.:smile05: The party line... Kadyrov at the podium and everything that goes with it.:smile48:

The English are very strong. For the fourth year in a row, at least one of their teams will be in the Champions League final. I think Liverpool will win the league this year.
