Congrats on your press pass! That is wonderful. It was fun to see the media entrance and viewing area. Nice stadium! 70¢ candy!!! Yes, of course I want to see the shopping center.

The extra footage was the cherry on the cake, well done, and allways remember in the city the saying Let the train take take the strain 😎🤗

28:30 Russell, you are slightly mistaken. 2018 was the year of the World Cup in Russia, and the Winter Olympics in Sochi were in 2014.

Thanks for another awesome video and please keep them coming. ⚽👍
I'm a CSKA supporter and Arena Khimki has hosted some big football matches.
Man United, Man City, Bayern, and Roma have all played away matches here.

In Russia lo sport principale è l'hockey su ghiaccio, il calcio è considerato uno sport minore

This green pig statue is the famous Russian Piglet, Winnie-the-Pooh's friend. He is a very popular character. Russell, haven't you seen the Russian version of "Winnie-the-Pooh" cartoon?

I think no matter what country, getting such a behind the scenes look at a football match, that truly is a treat. Thank you Russell! Now, that market - those mushrooms, I take a pound of each please. And then they had Johannisbeered (I am German) - that is something I cannot get at all living here in the US, I miss them. I translated them for you: смородина (fresh red currants). Mash them up well in milk, GREAT milkshake (add sugar though). CHOO CHOO :) ♥

25:26 "Likhobory" are dashing people, robbers.... The villages of Upper and Lower Likhobory were once located here. And the Likhoborka river has survived to this day. There is a version that the name "Likhobory" was assigned to this area because of the large number of brigands who "fished" in the local forests - "dashing people", as they were called in the old days.

Great footage! I have to wonder if the Russian Premier League is as "international" as the English Premier League.

[blauwasser]

not a match goer, but this peace of Russell's art was quite interesting as always. and yeah, im a trainspotter

[Shining]

Interesting video Russell. I ❤️ how you walk around illustrating what everyday life is like for Russians. Thanks Buddy 👍

32:38 Russell found a retro train and the past :)

[TheRus]

Russell!An idea! Let's be a sports commentator. You will comment on Australia and at the same time travel around the cities ;)

Khimki is a small town (pop.250 000), the nearest suburb of Moscow.
Nevertheless, in 2024 the Khimki FC entered the Russian Premier League.
Zenit from St.Petersburg - is the richest FC in RPL.
