CSKA suffered their second consecutive defeat in the Champions League – Russian Newspaper

Generally matches without spectators is not that uncommon for a European club. Over the past ten years had accumulated eight such games, mostly in the European League.

In the group stage of the Champions League at the empty stands still held two match. Both on account of “Roma”, which in 2004 was severely punished for the behavior of their fans and took the German “Bayer” with Madrid “Real” to “Stadio Olimpico” in absolute silence. Now here’s a “thanks” to all the fans to hold the match in silence reached our CSKA, who resisted the formidable “Bavaria”.

the development of the theme

And yet, if in Russian football matches without spectators have long ceased to be a gimmick, then Munich idea of ​​what is possible so to play, caused a complete misunderstanding. This is not surprising in the history of the Bundesliga have been recorded by a single meeting at the empty stands.

– I hope this will be the first and last time my team to play in such a situation – said at the pre-match press conference coach ” Bavaria “Josep Guardiola. – Feeling very strange and unusual. We always play for a lot of viewers, and here … But what can you do. We will leave on the field.

Brighter all spoke, perhaps, the legendary Lothar Matthaus, who said that “football without an audience, anyway, that Moscow without the Kremlin.” Anyway, the players had to accept the decision of UEFA. As fans. By the way, the Munich fans have sent a request to attend the match, but in the Union of European Football Associations, and they refused.

In the hour before the game around, “Arena-Khimki” nothing reminds of the football festival. “Extra ticket is not there?” – The question of a young man put me in a deadlock. The fact that the fans in the stadium did not get it, it turns out, he knew, but, as they say, hope dies last.

Before the VIP entrance with a squeal swarmed live passes inside. This rebyatnya, which was to bring to the field of players. However, each of the 22 children had a right to hold with a single parent. UEFA staff were relentless even if a child came to the father and mother to one person had to stay outside.

In general, according to the regulations, from both clubs access to the stadium could get a maximum of 75 people, including players. In addition, the ability to get to the stadium were police officers, security personnel, employees of the bullring, UEFA representatives and sponsors and journalists. In fact the same to the starting whistle in the stands gathered more people, about three hundred. What is happening on the field, they watched in silence.

However, without the support of the army team noise still remains. As soon as the match began, as, to the amazement of German journalists, because there was a tribune of the usual cry for the players, “CSKA! CSKA! CSKA!” German colleagues initially did not even realize what was happening: the empty grandstand, and the chant is. These are the most loyal fans came to cheer for your favorite team, even knowing that the stadium will not let them.

Meanwhile, in support of the wards Leonid Slutsky yesterday more than needed. It was enough for a glance in the application protocol to assess the problems owners: CSKA Moscow, for example, was able to scrape together only five players in stock, plus on the bench was a shock striker Seydou Doumbia Muscovites, not had time to heal the injury. But the visitors put all the best.

The difference in class manifested itself very quickly. The first ten minutes the hosts did not leave their half of the field. Imposingly lace Bavarians easily torn protective orders Muscovites, but in the final stages Arjen Robben and company lacked elementary discipline. Fortunately, failure, similar to what happened in Rome two weeks ago, was avoided. But the goal of his “Bavaria” in the first half, still produced. Mario Fernandez doterpel and demolished namesake Götze, who burst through the middle of the penalty area – penalty! 11-meter by 22 minutes surely realized Thomas Muller – 1: 0.

If you feel that the game gives guests noticeably slowed down and almost paid the price for it. After 36 minutes, Ahmed Musa rushed off to rendezvous with Manuel Neuer, but he proved that it is not for nothing is the best goalkeeper in the world. Immediately on finishing was Zoran Tosic, but his shot flew over the bar much.

After the burst of soldiers, cheered, and those who managed to get to the stadium. The crowd picked up the chant, gave out, and it became clear that this is not the UEFA delegates. Meanwhile, Roman Eremenko roundhouse charged with a penalty corner in the bar. By such impudence opponent woke up and “Bavaria”. Before the break, the Germans had to double the advantage, but Lewandowski forgiven owners.

In the second half of the match was quite viscous struggle in which a greater chance of success had guests, but the final score on the scoreboard remained the same – 1: 0 in favor of the “Bavaria”. CSKA Moscow after the defeat of the “Roma” in the first round – 1: 5 suffered their second consecutive defeat and remained hopeless outsider in his gruppe.Sleduyuschy match in the group stage CSKA hold on October 21 in Khimki. Rival champions Russia will be the English “Manchester City”.
