Actor Beroev told how he began to support Spartak

Actor Yegor Beroev began to sympathize with the Moscow football club “Spartak” thanks to his acquaintance with the top scorer of the red and whites and Olympic champion of 1956 as part of the national team USSR in football Nikita Simonyan.

Beroev will play the role of Simonyan in the film “Golden Double”.

“Now I have a team that I like – Spartak. “Before I didn’t have a favorite team,” the actor said. “But thanks to my acquaintance and communication with Nikita Pavlovich Simonyan, thanks to many stories from his life, I can say that for me Spartak is not a random choice.”

“It’s difficult to call me a fan, but Spartak is a close-knit team for me. Now the history of the red and white for me is not ordinary thanks to my old friend Nikita Pavlovich Simonyan and also Alexander Mirzoyan, he is also not an accidental person at Spartak,” he added.

“Golden Double” is dedicated to the memory of Simonyan and tells about the stage of his coaching career when “Ararat” under his leadership became a champion in one season USSR and winner of the National Cup. Simonyan died on November 23 on the centenary of his life.

Film produced with the support of the Ministry of Culture RF and the Russian Football Federation, will be released in large format on January 29.

Kompany shared his impressions after Bayern’s tough victory in the Champions League

Bayern coach Vincent Company He shared his impressions after the success in the match against Union (2-0) in the Champions League group stage.

“This is the Champions League and getting results is not always easy.

I cannot say that the opponent was superior to us in the first half of the match. We created dangerous situations, but the team did not have high speed.

Even though we received a red card in the second half, we played excellent football. The players reacted correctly to the situation. If what we did before the break wasn’t convincing enough, the team looked good in the second part of the game.

Most of the time, opponents try to do their best in the first half. This is true not only for Bayern, but for every dominant club.

I played in teams of similar status and I know that sometimes the game only opens after the break. “The fate of the match is not always decided in the first forty-five minutes,” concluded Vincent Kompany.
