The Kolomna Sentinel
Match15 Aug 2026
Torpedo Vladimir punish Kolomna for switching off
2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Dmitry Ivanov will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Kolomna escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Oleg Lapaev, 20, steals the show — 8.33
Marked 8.33 at 20, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Tempers go at Kolomna
Mikhail Kanaev 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.

Dmitry Ivanov’s goal not enough for Kolomna
Dmitry Ivanov scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑3 to Torpedo Vladimir, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Yegor Sidorov signs a new deal
“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Yegor Sidorov commits to Kolomna for another 3 years.

The crowd has taken to Oleg Lapaev
At 20 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Dmitry Ivanov was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.37. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Kolomna and Alexandr Usov 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.

7 new faces, and Kolomna are still learning each other
A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.
In brief
- The dugout Dmitri Dzyuba faces the questions
- Market No place for Nikita Lukjanenko in the plan
- Looking ahead The leaders are next for Kolomna
