The Ministry of Digital Development and law enforcement agencies proposed to expand the Fan ID fan identification system for the Russian Cup matches. The measure was explained by anti-terrorist measures and ensuring security “in a difficult environment”. This “Kommersant” reported a source in the sports leadership of the country.

The government has extended the action of the fan card to the games of the Russian Cup on the fields of the teams of the Russian Premier League (RPL) from October 1. Before that, the system was used in the top division of the national championship, as well as in the final of the Cup of Russia and the match for the Super Cup of the country.

The source of Kommersant in the football leadership said that such an initiative was agreed three months ago at a meeting with the participation of representatives of the Ministry of Digital Services and law enforcement agencies. The interlocutor of Kommersant suggested that because of the changes, most football clubs will miss from 500 million to 600 million rubles. income. In his opinion, the least impact of the initiative will be on St. Petersburg Zenit, Krasnodar, as well as on Moscow Spartak, CSKA, Dynamo and Lokomotiv.
