The Ufa Sentinel
Match19 Sep 2026
Ilja Agapov leads the rout of Torpedo Moscow
3‑0, and Ilja Agapov took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Ufa tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.
Match19 Sep 2026
Ufa make it 4 in a row
Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Ufa have 4 straight wins of it.
Player ratings21 Sep 2026
Leon Musaev pops up at the right end — 6.27
6.27, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.
Player ratings21 Sep 2026
A defender's goal wins it for Ufa — 7.72
1 for Ilja Agapov, marked 7.72, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.
Squad21 Sep 2026
A falling-out at Ufa
Vladislav Kamilov and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Transfer targets21 Sep 2026
Door shut on Luka Gagnidze
Ufa asked and Dinamo Moscow said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.
The dugout21 Sep 2026
The manager makes an example of Leon Musaev
“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.

Ezequiel Soriano 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.
The dugout21 Sep 2026
Leon Musaev is still paying for one afternoon at Ufa
Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.
In brief
- The dugout Lev Markov: “That is the standard”
- The dugout Ufa keep their word to Zalimkhan Yusupov
- Squad Marko Prljević is a square peg at Ufa
