Former midfielder of the Krasnodar team, Aleksey Selin, stated in an interview with Euro-football.ru that the matches “Krasnodar” – “Dinamo” and “Zenit” – CSKA, held in the third round of the Russian Premier League, were significant. According to Selin, the victory of “Krasnodar” over “Dinamo” was not easy, but this result was very important and necessary for the team. He noted that the initiative taken by striker Kordoba in the match and scoring a goal was of great importance. Selin also commented on the referees' performance, criticizing them for overlooking roughness towards players in certain situations. In particular, despite the rough play against Kordoba in the first half, the referee did not award a penalty in favor of “Krasnodar.” When coach Musaev protested to the referee, he was shown a yellow card. Selin considers this situation to be incomprehensible. In his opinion, the games are not easy for “Krasnodar” at the beginning of the season, but the team is gradually adapting and the training is yielding results. Selin emphasized that the team needs to continue working hard throughout the season. Regarding the match between “Zenit” and CSKA, Selin noted that an unclear penalty was awarded in the game, resulting in a draw. Despite the strong composition of “Zenit,” the team could not secure a victory. Even with a change of coach at CSKA, they continue to accumulate points. After three rounds, “Krasnodar” has six points, “Dinamo” has four points, while “Zenit” and CSKA have five points each. “Zenit” is ranked higher than CSKA due to having scored more goals.

Gasilin stated that Zenit was stronger in this match, but the draw result is a success for CSKA. After three rounds, the Zenit team, led by Sergey Semak, has collected five points and is four points behind the tournament leader Lokomotiv. In the next match, the St. Petersburg team will face the Akhmat team from Grozny away. The match will take place on August 9. The Zenit team is performing well in the championship, but the loss of points is negatively affecting the results. In the upcoming games, the club is expected to improve its performance and continue the fight for higher positions. Fans are expecting a victory from their team in the next game.

According to Offor, Talalaev is a very demanding coach. He wants each player to fully showcase their abilities. The Nigerian forward stated that those who can meet the coach's demands will certainly continue to work on themselves and grow.

Former head coach of "Spartak" Aleksandr Tarkhanov expressed his opinion about the frequent expulsions of players from the field. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to him, in the first three matches of the new season, "Spartak" players received three red cards. Tarkhanov considers this situation to be excessive and emphasized that the head coach himself is also influencing such results. Currently, "Spartak" has accumulated only four points from three match results in the Russian championship standings and is in 11th place. The team's results are not as expected so far. In Tarkhanov's opinion, the head coach's behavior and actions on the field are also affecting the players. This, in turn, is causing problems with the players' discipline. In the upcoming round, "Spartak" head coach Dejan Stankovich will face the "Lokomotiv" team with his players. The match is scheduled to take place on Sunday, August 10. The team is expecting a responsible game ahead. "Spartak" players need to work on improving discipline and results.

Experienced football specialist Pavel Stipidi shared his thoughts on the match held between "Krasnodar" and Moscow's "Dinamo" as part of the third round of the RPL. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He commented on the results of this game and evaluated the situation of the "Dinamo" team under the leadership of Valeriy Karpin. According to Stipidi, neither team was able to show championship-level play in this match. The match was slow and lacked struggle. Perhaps the weather conditions also affected such a game. Playing in hot and humid weather is not easy. According to statistical data, the "Dinamo" team could not make a single accurate shot on goal throughout the game, and no dangerous situations were created. Only Kordoba managed to score, and it was the only goal of the match. Stipidi also emphasized that the "Dinamo" players could not show the will to change the game in their favor. He stated that under Karpin's leadership, no positive changes are noticeable in the team. Perhaps the arrival of new players could improve the situation. However, at present, in some aspects, "Dinamo" appears to be worse than during the era of the previous coach Lichka. Although "Dinamo" Moscow and "Dinamo" Makhachkala recorded equal results in terms of points and goals scored and conceded, according to the alphabetical order in the tournament table, the Moscow team gave way to the Makhachkala team in ninth place.

Vyacheslav Koloskov, the honorary president of the Russian Football Union, has recently mentioned the main problem in Russian football. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He noted that currently there are not many problems in Russian football, but the most important issue is the low number of trainees from local football schools. According to Koloskov, there are too many foreign players in Russian clubs, and this situation is considered one of the main problems. For this reason, local players are not given enough opportunities. It should be noted that a restriction has been imposed on foreign players in the Russian Premier League. According to the current regulations, each team can have up to eight foreign players on the field at the same time. This restriction is aimed at increasing the number of local players. Last season, the "Krasnodar" club won gold medals for the first time in the Russian championship. This result was noted as an important event in the country's football. At the same time, experts emphasize the necessity of increasing the number of local players in the championship.

Previously, there were reports that Zobnin might leave “Spartak” as a free agent. Masalitin shared the following thoughts on this matter: “To answer such questions, one needs to live within the team. Perhaps after a few rounds, head coach Stankovich will be dismissed, and Zobnin may become a key player. For now, since the player has a valid contract, it must be fulfilled until the end,” he said. For reference, the 31-year-old experienced player has played in three matches across all competitions this season, but has not stood out with a goal or an assist. Zobnin's labor contract with “Spartak” is valid until the summer of 2026.

This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He stated that Musayev was in a much more comfortable position at that moment. He was moving away from the defender and advancing towards the attack. According to Krugovoy, if the pass had reached him correctly, Musayev would have had a high probability of scoring a goal. Therefore, he gave his teammate the opportunity. On August 3, CSKA played an away game against the "Zenit" team. The match, which took place in the third round of the Russian championship, ended with a score of 1:1.

Famous footballer Edgar Davids, who played for Juventus in past years, learned that his acquaintance Nabila Habibi committed theft. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. The ad.nl portal provided information about this. According to the publication, Davids found out several years later that his painting collection had been stolen. He had entrusted the collection to a trusted person. For a while, Habibi also lived in his house. While Davids believed the collection was kept in a safe place, Habibi stole 37 paintings, pawned them at various pawnshops, and received approximately 30 thousand euros.

One of the buyers saw Davids' name on the back of a painting and contacted him through social networks. After that, Davids filed a lawsuit. Habibi admitted to the theft. Earlier, she had faced problems related to criminal cases and had left her acquaintance after taking 3500 euros from him.

The general secondary education system in Uzbekistan is undergoing fundamental changes. This was reported by Upl.uz. The country has officially begun implementing a 12-year education model. This was announced by the press service of the Ministry of Preschool and School Education. In the near future, a normative legal document confirming these innovations is expected to be signed. This decision was made as part of a comprehensive program to reform the education sector. The program was presented to the president on September 8 and envisions a systematic renewal of all stages from preschool to higher education. The transition to 12-year education is being carried out to align with international experience. The results of the PISA study conducted in 2022 showed that in 85% of countries considered leaders in education, the number of school years is exactly 12. The introduction of the new model will allow adapting curricula to international standards and also enable students to be well-prepared for subsequent stages of education and vocational training. The updated system structure will be as follows: the first year is designated as a preparatory stage for 6-year-old children, which is considered part of primary education. Primary education will last a total of 5 years, including 1 year of preparation and 4 years of primary school. The next stage is basic general secondary education, covering grades 5 to 9 and lasting 5 years. The final 2 years constitute complete general secondary education, which will be conducted in schools, academic lyceums, specialized military schools, or technical colleges. To ensure a smooth transition process and create the necessary infrastructure, about 3,600 new schools will be built and more than a thousand state kindergartens will be opened. It is precisely in these institutions that the updated preparatory program for the youngest students will be piloted. An interesting point is that information about the transition to 12-year education had been actively discussed on social networks since 2023. However, at that time, the Ministry of Preschool and School Education officially denied these claims, emphasizing that the 11-year education system was in effect. The current decision shows that approaches at the state level have been reconsidered and there is political will to implement large-scale reforms. In the history of independent Uzbekistan, a 12-year education system has existed before. From 2010 to 2017, education was organized based on a 9+3 scheme, where students who completed grade 9 were required to continue their studies at vocational colleges and academic lyceums.
