Match

Still nobody has beaten Bumprom Gomel

The unbeaten run reaches 6. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad

Sergey Kruzhilin 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.

Squad

Tempers go at Bumprom Gomel

Dmitriy Kaplunov 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Kirill Parmonov

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

Player ratings

The afternoon belonged to Vadim Fastovets

A mark of 7.05, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Kirill Parmonov

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Tempers go at Bumprom Gomel

Csongor Komáromi 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.

Squad

Words at Bumprom Gomel training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Artem Zhevnerenko 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

Nikita Ovsyanik 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.

Squad

Cavid Garayev says Bumprom Gomel went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Match

Bumprom Gomel come up short against Slutsk

Slutsk left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Dmitriy Kaplunov in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Bumprom Gomel this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Denis Sadovskiy 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.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Vadim Fastovets

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Boardroom

92% of the income goes out in wages at Bumprom Gomel

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Squad

A fracture rules Ivan Zhestkin out for 77 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Bumprom Gomel will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

Tempers go at Bumprom Gomel

Maxim Samotoy 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.

Squad

Vinicius Nunes 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 Bumprom Gomel know it.

Boardroom

Wages eat 248% of everything Bumprom Gomel 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.

Squad

Ilya Udodov 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.

Market

Bumprom Gomel add cover with Cavid Garayev

It is the least glamorous business a club does and the reason seasons do not collapse in February. Cavid Garayev is here for the weeks when three men are injured and somebody still has to play.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Ruslan Madatov

Successful dribbles: 28. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Tempers go at AZAL

Namig Madatov 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.

Squad

Words at AZAL training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Juan Cámara 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.

Match

AZAL get the job done against Ravan

A 2‑1 win over Ravan, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

One of those days for Bahlul Sadygov

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.11, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Loan watch

Eddy Jafarov counts the days

“I watch every AZAL game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Qarabag runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.
