  • It is stadium "Petrovsky", it is house arena of the Russian champion 2007 ZENIT Sankt-Peterburg. In 2007 at this stadium the Zenit three times has lost to the most basic contender spartak from moscou. All three times spartak by a nickname "rotten pork" beat disputable foul shots, and has once scored a goal a hand, but it has not helped the Moscow pigs, they the next time became the second on what them and I congratulate!!!
