In St. Petersburg on the evening of November 6, a meeting of the blue-white-blue and Voronezh team “Torch” was held. In the last minutes of the match, the players forgot about the opponent’s goal and staged a massive brawl. This is reported by RIA Novosti Sport.

The match was held as part of the 29th round of the Youth Football League. The victory was won by the hosts - Zenit - with a score of 3: 0. At the end of the game, Yegor Potapenko, a blue-white-blue player, treated the Torch footballer rudely and kicked him. He had a co-commander stand up for him, who weighed Potapenko a blow to the face from which he fell on the lawn.

Other footballers also joined the fight. On the field to the fight ran even players from the bench. The referee showed red cards to three players of the St. Petersburg team and two Voronezh players. However, after removal, they did not stop, and they had to be separated again.
