Mikheil Daraselia keeps the receipts

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

A falling-out at Tskhinvali

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

Squad30 Nov 2026

Home is on Rosivan's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Tskhinvali are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Squad30 Nov 2026

Giorgi Kvaratskhelia 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 dugout30 Nov 2026

Danilo Santos gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout30 Nov 2026

Amiran Tkeshelashvili 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 Amiran Tkeshelashvili trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

A falling-out at Tskhinvali

Squad5 Oct 2026

Rosivan wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Tskhinvali know it.

Luiz Felipe 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.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Dato Kashia beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 19. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match3 Oct 2026

Tskhinvali get the job done against Saburtalo

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

Squad5 Oct 2026

Ivan Lipatov is the division's best young player this month

At 20 he has spent a month being better than everybody his age in the league, which is a different and harder thing than one good afternoon. Tskhinvali will try very hard not to make too much of it.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

The afternoon belonged to Otar Kashia

A mark of 7.93, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

The dugout5 Oct 2026

Jaba Chakvetadze has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Jaba Chakvetadze on a 1‑0 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Market5 Oct 2026

No place for Otar Gamsakhurdia in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Otar Gamsakhurdia has his answer from Tskhinvali; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Market10 Aug 2026

Samtredia come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Tskhinvali did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market10 Aug 2026

Saba Qazaishvili says no to Samtredia

“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Saba Qazaishvili had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Dato Kashia signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Dato Kashia commits to Tskhinvali for another 4 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Tskhinvali

Davit Shengelia 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.

Dinamo Tbilisi tell Tskhinvali: Léo Santos is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words at Tskhinvali training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Giorgi Kvaratskhelia 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.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Davit Lobjanidze

“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.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Tskhinvali ask about Pietro

A loan enquiry to Corinthians: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Jaba Chakvetadze chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.
