Максим Петров, когда увидел состав сборной России на следующие матчи
Два Петрова — 39 ударов
В «Балтике» два Петрова, Илья и Максим. Вместе они ударили по воротам 39 раз и забили два гола. Если считать по-простому, на гол уходит девятнадцать с половиной ударов. Звучит как готовый повод для шуток на трибуне.🙂
Но не торопитесь. У этих 39 ударов суммарный xG — 4,1.…

Бевеев — самый занятый человек на поле.
Мингиян стал единственным игроком России,…
