Murom strike at the death to beat Kaluga
There were 88 minutes on the clock and Kaluga had all but banked the point. Football rarely reads the room, and Murom did not stop to explain themselves.

Rasil Asaidulin keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Murom may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Cherepovets come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Murom did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Shamil Gasanov 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 Murom this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

5 academy graduates step up at Murom
Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Belts tighten at Murom
The accounts are being read more closely than the results. Wages before ambition is the order of business now, and the manager has been told so.
Transfer targets19 Jul 2027
Murom rebuffed over Matvey Fedorov
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Chaika have kept their man, and Murom go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Philipp Dvoretskov 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.

One of their own: Rasil Asaidulin
He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
