Why not review the results of the matches then?
Another attack of Russophobia happened to the functionaries of the English Premier League. They decided to delete from the history the achievements of Russian football players, who at one time showed themselves perfectly in the top clubs in England.
Their goals were simply cancelled.
Far behind are the days when Russian footballers played en masse in the clubs of the English Premier League. The last mass arrival of our players to Foggy Albion happened after Russia’s success at the 2008 European Championship. Then many of the leaders of the national team were sold out by the best teams in England.
Zhirkov, Arshavin, Pavlyuchenko, Bilyaletdinov, who shone at Euro 2008, as well as Pogrebnyak, who joined them, delighted Russian fans with performances on English fields for several seasons.
Arshavin, Pavlyuchenko and Pogrebnyak became true goalscorers in England. Andrey’s poker against Liverpool at Anfield was discussed without exaggeration by the whole world. Merseysiders will remember this rainy day for a long time. Roman also had enough of beautiful goals in England, and Pavel became the first Russian to score in his debut game in the Premier League.
But the English Premier League decided to finally get rid of everything Russian. Not only did the league last year, in violation of all legal norms, refuse to broadcast matches to Russian broadcasters in Russia, but a video appeared on the official YouTube channel of the Premier League a few days ago, clearly intended to hurt the Russians to the quick.
The video featured goals scored by players from 103 countries. The only state for which an exception was made, as you might guess, was Russia. After a goal from Romanian Dan Petrescu, a ball from the small Caribbean country of St. Kitts and Nevis, Bobby Brown, followed. At the same time, representatives of the Premier League did not want to know the opinion of the audience about such a selection. Comments on the video have been disabled.
Possible candidates from Russia to get into this video, however, were not greatly affected by the decision of the representatives of the Premier League. Arshavin and Pogrebnyak, in an interview with Match TV, took this quite philosophically.
If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have known about it. I don’t care at all, it doesn’t cause any emotions, ”Arshavin said.
“It’s okay, people will look on the Internet,” Pogrebnyak offered an interesting alternative.
The decision not to include Russian goals in the video is reminiscent of insanity and an attempt to rewrite history. The cancellation of the achievements of Russian football players looks like another despicable act that does not make much sense or idea. With such zeal, one can think about revising the results of matches and tournaments with the participation of Russian football players. Surely Liverpool fans would rather forget Arshavin’s poker in 2009. Yes, and the results of the legendary tour of the Moscow “Dynamo” in the UK in 1945 can also be reviewed. Why not?
Now even the most unthinkable scenarios for the manifestation of Russophobia are quickly being transformed into an urgent agenda. And hardly anyone is still surprised by this.

The scorer of the brace against Chelsea is an Aston Villa player. Ollie Watkins appointed head coach of the team Unai Emery tactical genius. Watkins’ comment is quoted by the BBC in reference to Sky Sports.
The meeting of the 18th round of the English championship between Aston Villa and Chelsea from London ended with a strong victory for the Birmingham team with a score of 2:1.
“He changed tactics because Chelsea played man-marking, but he had an extra central defender when we played long balls. When I came on in the second half, he put Jadon Sancho and Morgan Rodgers on the wing and put Youri Tielemans in the No. 10 position, so we had an extra player. He’s a tactical genius,” Watkins said.
“Amazing victory. For me personally, to go on the pitch and score two goals is a fantastic feeling, but to continue that streak and come here to such a difficult place and beat Chelsea is just incredible,” he added.
