Igor Akinfeev wore the captain's armband for the 500th time in the Russian Premier League on Monday. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The 39-year-old goalkeeper performed his duties excellently and did not concede a goal. However, the CSKA team was unlucky in the match against "Orenburg".

The game ended with a score of 0:0 after the final whistle. After the match, Akinfeev admitted that he was unaware it was his 500th time as captain.

He said he had not prepared for this. "It is a great honor for me.

I grew up at CSKA. The work given to me returns through small joys.

I am very happy," Akinfeev said in an interview with "Match TV". Now Igor Akinfeev and the CSKA players will begin preparations for the match against the "Akhmat" team at home on July 27 within the framework of the Russian championship.
