Unscrambled penalty, this is not a reason to bring down all the bile and anger, no. ", - said Kozlovsky. However, some fans of football do not agree with the defenders of the Russian striker. So, in Saratov, unknown people wrote in the arch "belfry" "Smolov goat". It is worth noting that the art object was opened in December 2016, and the project itself was financed by Fedor Smolov.
