The Tskhinvali Post

Tskhinvali march on in the cup
Shukura are out and Tskhinvali go through, 1‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Cruel end for Shukura as Tskhinvali pounce
There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Tskhinvali scored in the 98th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Both of them Mikheil Qazaishvili's — 8.03
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.03, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

A debut Archil Kashia will not forget — 7.68
There is exactly one of these per career and it does not usually go like this. 0 on the scoresheet, 7.68 beside the name, and a crowd that had never seen him before chanting it by the end.

Tskhinvali say no — this time
The offer from Samtredia for Davit Kashia was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Tskhinvali cannot stop winning
3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Torpedo Kutaisi watching Mamuka Gvelesiani
The interest is real enough to have reached print. Tskhinvali have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Tempers go at Tskhinvali
Mikheil Qazaishvili 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.

Words at Tskhinvali training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Archil Kobiashvili 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.
