Match

24 unbeaten for Dinamo Minsk

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 24 matches without defeat is a foundation Dinamo Minsk did not have in the autumn.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Gleb Sereda

19 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Dinamo Minsk lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match

The run is over for Dinamo Minsk

15 matches without defeat, and then Slavia Mozyr. Nobody at the ground pretended it would go on forever; nobody expected it to stop here either.

Squad

Fawaz Abdullahi falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout

No hiding place for Karen Vardanyan

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Karen Vardanyan, and the manager let it.

Squad

A falling-out at Dinamo Minsk

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

Loan watch

Ivan Shimakovich wants to come home

“I did not go to Neman to sit and watch. I want to come back to Dinamo Minsk and fight for my place.” 0 appearances in 13 matches say the rest.

Player ratings

Guljigit Alykulov stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.26 on the card, and the Dinamo Minsk support went home talking about one name.

The dugout

Žan-Luk Leban knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Žan-Luk Leban trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Match

Dinamo Minsk cannot stop winning

15 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Squad

The knee: Gleb Sereda out for 27 days

27 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Dinamo Minsk lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

The dugout

Žan-Luk Leban keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Dinamo Minsk may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Match

Nobody wins at Dinamo Minsk

13 home matches unbeaten. Visiting sides arrive already talking about the atmosphere, which is usually the sign that they have half-lost before kickoff.

Squad

Roman Zdukhov out for 14 days

The medical room confirms 14 days on the sidelines for Roman Zdukhov, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

A row about effort at Dinamo Minsk

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Žan-Luk Leban was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match

Dinamo Minsk get the job done against Torpedo-BelAZ

A 1‑0 win over Torpedo-BelAZ, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

Ninety minutes of Guljigit Alykulov at his very best

Marked 8.29. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Dinamo Minsk.

Squad

Dinamo Minsk lose Vasiliy Vasilenko

41 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Match

Dinamo Minsk cannot stop winning

14 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Squad

Gleb Sereda damages knee ligaments — 35 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 35 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match

The view from the top for Dinamo Minsk

27 points, and the rest of the division looking up. Every side that finishes first spends the season pretending it is not thinking about it, and this one has started pretending.

Match

Another one collected away from home

7 on the bounce on the road for Dinamo Minsk. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.

The dugout

Artem Korzun keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Dinamo Minsk may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Market

Only the photograph left for Artem Korzun

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Artem Korzun will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Dinamo Minsk the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Player ratings

Vladimir Obukhov was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 21. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad

Words at Dinamo Minsk training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Žan-Luk Leban is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Words exchanged at Dinamo Minsk

Vladislav Yatskevich 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.

Match

Nobody wants to play Dinamo Minsk right now

13 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Gleb Sereda

42 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Dinamo Minsk lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Player ratings

Vadim Arutyunyan, 21, steals the show — 7.60

Marked 7.60 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Match

The run at home goes on for Dinamo Minsk

12 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

Market

Evgeniy Gremza is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Dinamo Minsk is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Words at Dinamo Minsk training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Fawaz Abdullahi is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Tempers go at Dinamo Minsk

Vladislav Yatskevich 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.

The terraces

Dinamo Minsk supporters have found a favourite in Vadim Arutyunyan

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 21-year-old it feels ownership of. Vadim Arutyunyan 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.

Match

Dinamo Minsk find a way past Dinamo Brest

Dinamo Brest made Dinamo Minsk work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

In brief

  • The dugout The manager makes an example of Vladimir Obukhov
  • Squad Baba N'Diaye named in the team of the month
  • The dugout The view from the dugout

Transfer targets

Arayik Eloyan will not be coming to Dinamo Minsk

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Ararat-Armenia is saying, and nobody at Dinamo Minsk is enjoying the guessing.

Boardroom

Dinamo Minsk to lose Gleb Sereda for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Gleb Sereda has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Market

Vladislav Yatskevich arrives at Dinamo Minsk in a $210.0K statement of intent

There comes a point where a club either backs its own ambition or admits it does not have any. Dinamo Minsk have paid $210.0K for Vladislav Yatskevich, which is the loudest way there is of saying which one it chose.

Transfer targets

Dinamo Minsk rebuffed over Alexey Lavrik

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Dinamo Brest have kept their man, and Dinamo Minsk go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Player ratings

Guljigit Alykulov beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 21. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The terraces

Dinamo Minsk spend $210.0K on the signing the town wanted

It is the rarest sequence in football: supporters ask for something, and the club goes and does it. $210.0K for Vladislav Yatskevich, and for one week nobody is complaining about anything.

Boardroom

Alexey Legchilin will join Dinamo Minsk for nothing

The paperwork is done long before the player is. Alexey Legchilin has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Dinamo Minsk have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.

Squad

A falling-out at Dinamo Minsk

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

Market

Dinamo Minsk promote Artem Korzun from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Artem Korzun has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
