Zenit St.Petersburg

I went with to see Zenit Vs. Rostov at Petrovskiy stadium last Sunday. The match was good overall and it was fun to be at the stadium. In events like those you remember why football should be watched live at the stadium instead of TV at home. The atmosphere is just something special when you are a part of the crowd with many thousands people just like you.

I was a bit suprised that the stadium was so "small", only about 24-25 thousand capasity. But they are builing a new one which will be twice the size of the new one, which is great. It should be complete next year, so there is another good reason to come back to St.Pete, if not to study then at least to visit. I will maybe post some picture of the match later on.
