There isn’t anything remarkable about Russian football right now except the one thing: we’ve got a plenty of free-kick masters this season. Four gameweeks have passed and four excellent free-kicks went into the net.

The first to mention is Alexander Aliyev, Lokomotiv Moscow attacking midfielder. He already has the reputation of dead ball guru (and diver, too) so these two free-kicks aren’t much to wonder.

Y’all have probably seen the stunning free-kick from CSKA Moscow’ Keisuke Honda in Champions League game against Sevilla. This was a straight but tricky shot just into the body of goalkeeper so he couldn’t hold it. Honda did that in Russian Premier League too.

Another free-kick taker is Belarus defender Dmitry Molosh of Sibir Novosibirsk. He scored 8 goals in the First Division last season and got the first one in Premier League a week ago. This guy doesn’t care much about the distance.

  Beachgoers received a shock when a donkey soared 传奇私服through the blue sky over the beaches in southern Russia. Attached to a parachute, the animal brayed in fear as it circled over the heads of holidaymakers sunbathing on the beach. According to local police, the donkey ended up in the air as a result of an advertising campaign by some entrepreneurs to attract beachgoers to their private beach.

  Keisuke Honda, hands down, best free kick taker in the world. Better than Ronaldo, better than Juninho, he’s the best. He’s the only one that can literally make the ball dance in the air
