Match

No end in sight to Dinamo Barnaul's wait for a win

7 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Dinamo Barnaul has to find a result from somewhere.

The dugout

Alexey Grishakov: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Dinamo Barnaul have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Player ratings

Up for the corner, and Maxim Radchenko delivers — 7.29

Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Maxim Radchenko scored, was marked 7.29, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.

Market

Dinamo Barnaul turn down Cherepovets for Stepan Mikhailin

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

Squad

A falling-out at Dinamo Barnaul

Anton Petukhov and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Victor Nafikov

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

Squad

Words at Dinamo Barnaul training over how hard people work

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

Market

Dinamo Barnaul promote Ivan Semak from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Ivan Semak 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Anton Petukhov

“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.

In brief
