Matias Paavola was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Words at Slavia Mozyr training over how hard people work

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alexey Antilevskiy and Slavia Mozyr agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
