FC Leningradets is ready to meet the Chelyabinsk meteorite

The football championship has entered its second round. Today, Leningrad footballers will meet the Chelyabinsk team at the Roshchino Arena stadium. This is the third game in 8 days for the Leningraders. But they are ready to meet the "Chelyabinsk meteorite", the public page of FC "Leningradets" reported.

The "dark blues" and Chelyabinsk have 14 points each. Leningraders are in 3rd place in the tournament, Chelyabinsk is in 4th. Last year, the teams met twice with a score of zero and a draw. And in the first round match, Leningraders won with a score of 2:1. So now Chelyabinsk hopes to restore parity.

We will also add that today is the opponent's head coach, Roman Pilipchuk's birthday. He is turning 58. This will undoubtedly add fire to the game.

And a little more about the opponent. The team was created in 1977 at the Chelyabinsk Automated Mechanical Plant. It was called "Strela". Then it changed its name several times. Twice it was "Zenit", once "AMZ-Zenit", and since 2009 it has had its current name. The team colors are white and blue.

The Chelyabinsk fans arrived in St. Petersburg the day before. Before the match, they managed to take photos near the Gazprom Arena stadium.

" We came to win! " someone wrote in a public group of Chelyabinsk fans.

Leningradets fans wish their team victory in chats and publics. And they write that they believe in them.
