Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Dmitry Cherkasov scores twice — 8.97

Two goals and a mark of 8.97 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad10 Aug 2026

7 saves: Yegor Postrigan was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 7 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

A defender's goal wins it for Orenburg 2 — 7.72

1 for Stanislav Poroikov, marked 7.72, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Orenburg 2

Ivan Ivaschenko and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match8 Aug 2026

Dmitry Cherkasov sends Orenburg 2 past Krylya Sovetov 2

It finished 3‑1, and it was Dmitry Cherkasov’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Orenburg 2.

Orenburg 2 supporters have found a favourite in Stanislav Poroikov

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Stanislav Poroikov has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Anton Lukashov signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Anton Lukashov and Orenburg 2 agree another 5 years.

Market10 Aug 2026

Orenburg 2 and Kirill Dudarin are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

The cruellest goal, and it is Ivan Morozov's

A touch he did not want, a bounce he could not have read, and his name in the wrong column. There is no consoling a man after one of these, and Orenburg 2 will not try tonight.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Match1 Aug 2026

Orenburg 2 taken apart

0‑6 to Volna, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Ivan Ivaschenko signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Ivan Ivaschenko commits to Orenburg 2 for another 4 years.

Match1 Aug 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Orenburg 2 and Volna in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Orenburg 2

Ivan Ivaschenko and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad3 Aug 2026

6 past Yegor Postrigan

Whether it was the goalkeeper or the ten in front of him is the argument that will fill every conversation in town this week. 3 saves does not settle it either way.

Boardroom3 Aug 2026

Nobody left the Orenburg 2 dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Market3 Aug 2026

Orenburg 2 and Ivan Ivaschenko are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Too much change too quickly at Orenburg 2

21 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

Platon Zhuravlev faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Platon Zhuravlev after 0‑6, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

In brief
