Expert Sportbox.ru – about the victory of the leaders of the championship of Russia over “Dynamo” (3:1) and their non-standard free kick.
The first half was even. Usually Zenit has an advantage in possession of the ball, but this was not the case here. Dynamo’s defense was mobile and moving, which is why the opponent had to attack mostly positionally. Moments in such scenarios were created with great difficulty. “White-blue” looked good in counterattacks.
Everything seemed to go to the fact that the first half was supposed to end in a draw. But then Zenit played a very interesting set piece, which led to the appointment of a penalty. To be honest, I haven’t seen this yet. Apparently, a feigned combination: it is difficult to compose this impromptu. Malcolm first stood on target, but when Douglas Santos filed, he ran to the corner of the penalty area. It is very unusual for a striker to run from the net on a set piece. Dynamo obviously did not expect such a maneuver. And then there was Ngamale against the most dangerous player of Zenit. An attacker in his penalty area is always dangerous because he does not know how to take the ball away. The Cameroonian confirmed this once again: a stupid foul – and here’s a penalty!

In the second half, Zenit put a great pressure on Dynamo and scored a natural second goal. After that, the hosts had a few more poignant moments, smelled of a big score. Apparently, during the break, Semak spoke with the team and let the players know what needs to be added in order to remove all questions. In general, “Zenith” often tries to play on the class in the first half, and then sharply increase the speed in the second. With the performance skills of the attacking players of the St. Petersburg club, it is very difficult to fight them when they turn on to the maximum.
However, Dynamo played a good match and even managed to create intrigue in the last minutes. I was surprised that Majstorović, who spent almost the entire match at a very good level (and even knocked the ball out of an empty net!), allowed such a transfer. On the whole, the “white-blues” played no worse than in the victorious meeting of the Russian Cup, just this time they allowed themselves two stupid mistakes. Not without reason Nikita Simonyan once said that football is a tricky thing.

Head coach of Krasnodar Murad Musaev shared the team’s plans for winter training:
The work ahead is hard. Six games are scheduled during the training camp (from 14 to 28 January). The training program doesn’t change much. Everyone knows more or less what we will do.
Ideally I would like to play against foreign teams, but so far one opponent is from Kazakhstan, the rest from Russia. Strong opponents, but I would like some variety.
A match with Zenit is scheduled, there is an agreement on the 120 minute format. This is an important match because we have a lot of guys who need to train and some who have returned from injury.

The discussion about a possible boycott of the 2026 FIFA World Cup against the German national team in light of opinion polls has no basis in reality. This opinion was expressed by the honorary president of the Russian Football Federation (RFU) Vyacheslav Koloskov.
The Bild newspaper previously reported that almost half of Germans would support a boycott of the 2026 World Cup if Greenland joined. USA. According to a study by the INSA Institute, 47% of respondents support the idea of a boycott, 35% are against it and another 18% find it difficult to answer.
“This is nonsense. Whatever they come up with. What do Greenland and the World Cup have to do with anything? This is just a poll,” Koloskov said. “Another thing is if the German Football Association officially said that it will not send its team, then it would make sense to talk about it. We have to keep in mind that this will never happen. It’s all empty talk.”
The 2026 World Cup will be held in USAMexico and Canada from June 11th to July 19th.
Trump has repeatedly stated the need for Greenland to join USA. Already during his first presidential term he proposed the purchase of the island and in March 2025 he expressed confidence that it could be annexed.
Greenland is part of Denmark as an autonomous territory. In 1951, Washington and Copenhagen, in addition to allied commitments BORN signed the Greenland Defense Treaty. According to him USA they took charge of defending the island from possible attacks.
