Market

Elgün Bayramov puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Dinamo Barnaul, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Mikhail Kulish keeps the receipts

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

Squad

Tempers go at Dinamo Barnaul

Ilja Volnov 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 Barnaul supporters have found a favourite in Ilja Bychkov

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Ilja Bychkov 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Mikhail Osipov

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

Squad

Words at Dinamo Barnaul training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Dmitry Bakay 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.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near David Tepsikoev

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Dinamo Barnaul and Khimik cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Khimik came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Player ratings

Ivan Zhitnikov shuts the door

Defensive actions: 12, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ivan Zhitnikov

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

Match

No mercy from Dinamo Barnaul

KDV Tomsk will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Dinamo Barnaul were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Squad

A day Kirill Mogel will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Player ratings

Kirill Mogel was on a different afternoon to everybody else

9.12. 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.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Kirill Mogel

At 23 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.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Maxim Radchenko

19 defensive actions and a clean sheet at the end of them. A defender's afternoon can only be told by what did not happen, which is why nobody makes a highlights package out of one and every manager in the division would take it.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Dmitry Bakay

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 18 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.
