The Orsha Chronicle
Match12 Aug 2026
The small margins put Orsha out
Out, 0‑1 to Smorgon, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.
Market17 Aug 2026
Artem Antonov hands in a written request
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Orsha can pretend not to have heard.
Market17 Aug 2026
Minsk come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Orsha did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.
The terraces17 Aug 2026
The ground has had enough
“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 7 of the 28 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.
Market17 Aug 2026
Only the photograph left for Ivan Berezun
Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Ivan Berezun will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Orsha the goodbyes have quietly begun.
Match15 Aug 2026
4 matches without a win for Orsha
The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Orsha are no longer polite ones.
Squad17 Aug 2026
Gleb Zheleznikov 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 Orsha this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Match15 Aug 2026
A bad afternoon for Orsha against Volna Pinsk
0‑1 to Volna Pinsk, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.
Squad17 Aug 2026
The manager makes an example of Pavel Bordukov
“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
- Player ratings Nobody could get near Ivan Ageev
- Market Talks stall between Orsha and Egor Yuschenko
- Squad Abdulaziz Lawal knocks on the manager's door
