Sad events in our life have the positive sides. Most of the players, coaches and staff of PBC CSKA – those who are interested in soccer and support Russian National Team – were disappointed with its failure to qualify for WM 2010. The only one who was happy – Matjaz Smodis – tried to sweeten the bitter taste of defeat and invited the team to a restaurant.
As Andrey Vatutin counted, it was the first time in club’s history when the player organized a dinner for his teammates. The initiative was liked by everyone so CSKA president jokingly suggested writing the necessity of this kind of events to players’ contracts. To visit the restaurants every week. Vatutin also presented Smodis with the hat in Russian (and Slovenian!) flag’s colors and the football with Russian NT players’ photos. It seems Kristjan, Luka and Max Smodis will be happy to play with this ball.
