The Akzhaiyk Sentinel

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad29 May 2028

Tempers go at Akzhaiyk

Ivan Severjanov 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.

Match27 May 2028

Shakhter take the points off Akzhaiyk

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout29 May 2028

Abzal Shomko frozen out at Akzhaiyk

This is not rotation. Abzal Shomko has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Akzhaiyk is pretending otherwise.

Match29 May 2028

Halfway: Akzhaiyk sit in position 7

15 points at the turn. The first half of a season is a promise; the second is a bill, and the town is about to find out which of the two this one was.

The dugout29 May 2028

Aibol Taykenov faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Aibol Taykenov after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Player ratings29 May 2028

Rinat Nurgaliev beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 14. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout29 May 2028

Abinur Nūrymbet 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.

Looking ahead29 May 2028

The leaders are next for Akzhaiyk

Ordabasy top the table and they are coming into view. Nothing to lose, which is what every manager says before losing.

The dugout29 May 2028

Azat Postnikov has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Akzhaiyk will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The Akzhaiyk Sentinel

22 May 2028
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad22 May 2028

Azat Postnikov takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Match20 May 2028

Still nobody has beaten Akzhaiyk

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.

Player ratings22 May 2028

A masterclass from Azat Postnikov

Marked 9.42 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Match20 May 2028

Akzhaiyk see off Okzhetpes

Three points for Akzhaiyk, 3‑1 the final word against Okzhetpes in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad22 May 2028

Words at Akzhaiyk training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ivan Severjanov 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.

Squad22 May 2028

Tempers go at Akzhaiyk

Khalid Shakhtiev 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 dugout22 May 2028

Leiner Lobo frozen out at Akzhaiyk

This is not rotation. Leiner Lobo has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Akzhaiyk is pretending otherwise.

Squad22 May 2028

a squad player signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” a squad player commits to Akzhaiyk for another 3 years.

The dugout22 May 2028

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Aibol Taykenov, on a 3‑1 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.
