Match21 Nov 2026

Chastening afternoon for Metallurg

A 1‑5 beating by Ryazan was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Match23 Nov 2026

Metallurg up to position 3

28 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Metallurg

Ilnur Badrtdinov 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.

Match21 Nov 2026

6 goals as Metallurg and Ryazan go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 6 goals between Metallurg and Ryazan, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

The manager makes an example of Alexandr Kobzev

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad23 Nov 2026

A row about effort at Metallurg

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

Boardroom23 Nov 2026

Nobody left the Metallurg 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.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

Evgeny Alyoshin answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑5, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

The manager has not finished forgetting Maxim Vedeneev's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Metallurg

Alexandr Kobzev 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.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Maxim Vedeneev 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.

Looking ahead16 Nov 2026

Metallurg and Ryazan meet at the summit

The fixture the rest of the division is looking forward to more than either of the sides in it. Both know a win changes the season and a defeat does not end it, which is what makes it hard to play.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Odin Høiland

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

Loan watch16 Nov 2026

Alexandr Burykin has seen enough of Zarya Lugansk

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Metallurg, and 3 appearances in 14 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

A promise honoured for Bogdan Sheiko

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Metallurg told Bogdan Sheiko something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

Looking ahead16 Nov 2026

A reunion for Denis Semin

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Ryazan in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Kirill Dontsov asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

When it matters, Nikita Yavorskiy plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad5 Oct 2026

11 saves: Nikita Yavorskiy was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 11 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Match30 Sep 2026

Metallurg bow out of the cup

Ufa go through and Metallurg go home, 0‑2 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Match5 Oct 2026

Metallurg are top

21 points and nobody above them. The word is not being said around the ground yet, and it is being thought in every seat.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Dmitry Savin runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 26. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Words at Metallurg training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Maxim Vedeneev 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.

Boardroom5 Oct 2026

Wages eat 262% of everything Metallurg earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Squad5 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Metallurg

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

Squad5 Oct 2026

Dmitry Pakhomov reaches 200 appearances

200 games in the shirt. Nobody sets out to build a record like that; it happens to a certain kind of player at a certain kind of club, and this town knows what it has.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Odin Høiland

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
