The terraces

Everybody has an opinion about Mikhail Bondarenko

He is the name in every column and on every phone-in, which is a heavy thing to carry at any age. Some footballers thrive on it; others are quietly finished by it.

Squad

Yegor Kortsov has company in his position

The competition arrived without a word said to him about it. Yegor Kortsov keeps the shirt for now, at Dinamo Brest's convenience rather than his own.

Alexey Ivanov has taken the shirt

Three points for Dinamo Brest, 2-1 the final word against Slutsk in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Mikhail Bondarenko left out for the big one

A player who expected to start watched it instead. The manager will call it a decision for the team; Mikhail Bondarenko will call it something else in private.

Costly mistake from Maxim Belov

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.
