Moaning In Moscow

Nice to see the Russian Media still believe that Referee's should still be up for the odd bribe in a brown paper bag, picked up by sitting on a park bench while waiting on a guy called "red fox" and the company of nice Russian ladies of the night in their hotel rooms, before they go oot and award numerous penalties and dodgy free-kicks to favour the home team.

The reaction of the biggest selling sports pages reeks of over-confidence in their Spartak heroes and the inability to accept, that, maybe on the night Spartak weren't good enough to get a result.

Funny that there is no mention of the fact that the Spartak players went doon as easy as a Poundstretchers tent in a gail and that the Russians have a fondness for watering artificial surfaces in the hope of watching it grow.
