Market

Dinamo Bryansk turn down Stumbras for Sergey Gribov

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Daniil Konoplev takes the match ball home

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

Squad

Tempers go at Dinamo Bryansk

Sergey Terekhov 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.

Player ratings

Daniil Konoplev was on a different afternoon to everybody else

9.67. 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.

Match

Dinamo Bryansk get the job done against Kvant

A 3‑1 win over Kvant, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

The terraces

Dinamo Bryansk supporters have found a favourite in Sergey Gribov

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 21-year-old it feels ownership of. Sergey Gribov 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.

Player ratings

Vladislav Drogunov beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 18. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad

Nikita Zinovyev out for 33 days

The medical room confirms 33 days on the sidelines for Nikita Zinovyev, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

The dugout

Kirill Volovich 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.

In brief

  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • Squad Player of the week: Daniil Konoplev
  • The dugout No place in the plan for Lev Alim

Squad

Tempers go at Dinamo Bryansk

Sergey Terekhov 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

A row about effort at Dinamo Bryansk

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Timur Akmurzin was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Ilja Antonov

Dinamo Bryansk asked and Rodina said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

Dinamo Bryansk promote Danila Kalinin from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Danila Kalinin has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

One of our own: Nikita Zinovyev joins the Dinamo Bryansk first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Nikita Zinovyev is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

One of our own: Grigory Yevseyev joins the Dinamo Bryansk first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Grigory Yevseyev is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Grigory Aksyonov steps up from the Dinamo Bryansk academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Grigory Aksyonov has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Ivan Solovjov

“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.

Match

Dinamo St Petersburg take the points off Dinamo Bryansk

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

In brief
