Richard van Poortvliet: A bang to the head for Russian football
Whenever I write an article about the behaviour of Zenit I always get the feeling it is not going to be the last. In just the last six months I have written about the clubs’ fans causing trouble at a Champions League tie at Austria Vienna and then burning a Borussia Dortmund supporters’ flag in the same competition. However, that pales in comparison to the latest incident, when a fan ran on to the pitch towards the end of the game against Dynamo Moscow on Sunday at the Petrovksy Stadium and punched Vladimir Granat in the head.
