What was landed in 1942. A football match in the "city of the dead": how the besieged Leningrad proved that he was alive. What is another name for a zipper?

The construction of the stadium in Petrovsky Park began in 1923 according to the project of architects Alexander Langman and Leonid Cherikover. The stadium originally had the shape of a horseshoe, but already in 1935 the East Stand was built, enclosing the stadium. From that time on, the Dynamo stadium had a capacity of 54,000 spectators and remained the main arena of the country until the opening of the Luzhniki stadium. Today it is the oldest Moscow stadium.

Dynamo became the home arena of the Moscow football club of the same name, the first Dynamo match at the new stadium was held on May 19, 1929. In the USSR, sport was an ideology, not entertainment for spectators. Everyone, young and old, passed sports standards, preparing for work and defense. The whole country knew the names of the champions different types sports. Although Dynamo is primarily known as football stadium, before the war, bicycle and motorcycle races, all-Union championships in athletics And speed skating, bandy matches.

During the Great Patriotic War soldiers were trained at a carefully guarded stadium and detachments of OMSBON (a separate motorized rifle brigade for special purposes) were formed, which were then sent to the enemy rear. Shooters and snipers trained in the shooting gallery, and young spruces were planted on the football field, probably in order to disguise themselves from air scouts.

On June 3, 1945, the first peacetime football match took place at the Dynamo Central Stadium. In the 1950s, football was beyond competition, newsreel footage has been preserved of how huge queues line up at the box office, how crowds of people besiege the gates of the stadium, and how the overcrowded stands emotionally react, following the ups and downs of the match. Then a song appeared on the verses of Lev Oshanin: “But all of Moscow stubbornly goes straight to Dynamo, forgetting about the rain ...”

In 1964, an electronic light board was installed at the stadium. Before that, banners with the names of the teams were posted on the information towers, and when goals were scored, the giant numbers of the match score were manually changed.

For the Moscow Olympics, everything is old athletic facilities were reconstructed, in particular, lighting masts appeared on Dynamo, which made it possible to conduct television broadcasts in color. As part of the football tournament of the Olympics-80, seven matches were played here. Spectators then sat on more wooden benches, plastic chairs appeared here in 1998, due to which the stadium's capacity was sharply reduced.

The press box is a cult place, Vadim Sinyavsky and Nikolai Ozerov conducted their reports from here.

At the entrance to north stand in 1999, a monument was unveiled to the greatest goalkeeper Lev Yashin, who won fame in games for the USSR national team, and in club tournaments defending the colors of the Moscow "Dynamo".

By no means a revenge of the German imperialists for the lost First. World War II was an attempt to replace capitalism with an alternative system...
Hitler tried to impose on the world his version of globalization, his model of the socialist structure of the world. And in this he was no different from Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin. All of them - supporters of the world revolution - saw its solution in the world war. The socialism of Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin and the National Socialism of Hitler are oriented towards world war. Without it, they could not hold out for a long time either in the world or within “their” countries. (Gavriil Popov, Nikita Adzhubey.

Original taken from russdem in post

May 31, 1942, 75 years ago, in besieged Leningrad, a football match was held at the Dynamo stadium

The blockade of Leningrad is an example of tragedy and triumph, unprecedented in the history of mankind, the highest heroism and fortitude, the will to live and the ability to find means and strength to survive in inhuman conditions.

During the blockade, more than 640,000 people died of starvation alone in Leningrad, and more than 17,000 people died from bombs and shells.

In April 1942, German planes scattered leaflets over our units: “Leningrad is the city of the dead. We do not take it yet, because we are afraid of a cadaveric epidemic. We wiped this city off the face of the earth."

But Leningrad was not a city of the dead. Leningrad withstood a terrible, cold and hungry winter. Despite the fierce bombing and shelling, since February 1942, the second railway line "Road of Life" has been working smoothly, which made it possible to increase the rate of delivery of bread and other products.

It was decided to gather 2 football teams and hold a match. Let the Nazis know how "the dead play football." The match took place at the Dynamo stadium on May 31, 1942.

At 2 p.m., the referee entered the field, on the whistle of which 2 Leningrad teams appeared - "Dynamo" And Leningrad Metal Plant (LMZ). Applause broke out in the stands. Two short halves (30 minutes each) were played without a break. How the exhausted and exhausted players could spend so much time on the field pitted with explosions is not known, it was a feat. Spectators cheered the players as best they could. The meeting ended with a score of 7:3 in favor of Dynamo.


And after the match, the players left the field in an embrace, so it was easier to go. And the next day, powerful loudspeakers were installed in a number of sections of the advanced positions. Near the front line, for 90 minutes, under the roar of exploding shells, a report about a football match was broadcast from the Dynamo stadium.

That is why the recent opening of "Spartak" has become a super event not only for the fans of the red-and-whites, but also for millions of their eternal and irreconcilable "competitors". AiF decided to refresh the memory of the history of the "big brothers" of the Spartak stadium - the oldest and favorite arenas of the capital.

Mototrek - mistress!

Few people know that football team Dynamo already existed in 1923, and there was nowhere to train for it (how many years Spartak had!) There was nowhere, not counting the wasteland behind the Rizhsky (in those years - Vindavsky) station. At first, it was a grassless area with three rows of wooden benches, and the showers were located in the former mortuary (even atheists were baptized when they went in to bathe!).

Dynamo moved to a new "trump" place only when the financial situation in the club improved. At the head of the commercial department of the team stood young talented economists Lurie And Loevsky who organized artels for the production of sporting goods. Having connected to tailoring ... former homeless children, the club began to make a profit and look for a place for a new arena. After much debate, Petrovsky Park was chosen. Why did they argue for a long time? Yes, because it was the most favorite place for walking the Moscow nobility. There was a platform in it, called the “fair of brides”: rich “married Muscovites” were brought here “for viewing”. There was a restaurant, a theater, even a film studio! That is why the park was protected from the "working masses". But they didn’t save it - a crowd with shovels, picks and boots burst into the “nest of the aristocracy” ...

Alexander Lagman was appointed the chief architect of the project. He designed a gigantic... bike and motor track around the stadium. What for? For love! The lady of his heart, according to rumors, was a passionate motorcycle racer ... But something went wrong with the angle of inclination, and it was impossible to accelerate on the Dynamo track. Therefore, on the days of sold-out matches, he was simply forced to use additional benches. Fun fact: at that time, the score was indicated not only on the plates. There were also balloons above the stands. Three reds and two whites meant that the team in red shirts was leading with a score of 3: 2.

The new stadium became a whole "sports complex", it could accommodate up to 50 thousand spectators! Alas, on June 19, 1941, the last "peaceful" game was held there - the hosts accepted the Stalingrad "Tractor", and then the war began. Eyewitnesses recalled that during last match a flock of black crows flew onto the field and everyone felt terrible ... The stadium turned into a training center for fighters, and in 1942 young spruces were planted right on the field - this is how the arena was disguised from German pilots ...

On June 3, 1945, the era of the “Moscow football boom” began at Dynamo, when the people, hungry for spectacles, took the capital’s stadiums by storm ...

Tribunes for sorcerers

"Lokomotiv" (it was built in 1935 under the name "Stalinets") is the most mystical of all. Why do you think he was allowed to be called "Stalinist"? After all, the Secretary General did not particularly favor football. There is a version that this is because the "Stalin's bunker" was nearby. And then the name justified itself: the son of the "leader of the peoples" Vasily loved football very much and recruited players to his Air Force team at this stadium. How? He looked after a football player and ... took him to his state dacha. And there he kept until he agreed to the transition.

“Psychics adored this stadium,” said AiF. esoteric Mikhail Lamanov. - Tribunes were there long time as... earthen ramparts. Sitting on them, it was very convenient to accumulate the energy coming from thousands of people at a time, for example, goal scored. After all, the earth is a superconductor, and emotions at such moments went off scale! At one time, Stalinets-Lokomotiv was considered the main stadium of the capital: after the war, Dynamo was closed for restoration, Luzhniki still did not smell, so all the iconic games were held here. The audience went to the matches from the terminal Sokolniki on trams, thickly sticking around the roofs as well. Moscow thieves had an unspoken rule: “do not pinch fan trams”, “because decent people go to cheer for sports” ...

Psychics from all over Moscow were "recharged" at Lokomotiv. Photo: RIA Novosti / Yuri Somov

"Toy" Furtseva

Rumor has it that Luzhniki decided to build in order to distract Furtsev from... suicide! The fact is that she once inadvertently spoke about her patron - Khrushchev and fell into "disfavor" with him. From a series of humiliations, Furtseva opened her veins (later she did this repeatedly), and Khrushchev with the words: “She has menopause, or something, she needs to occupy a woman with something,” in 1954 instructed her to oversee the construction of a super stadium. zealously set to work... The project was made and approved in 90 days, and the whole country was involved in the construction. Volunteers came from all over the Union, building materials were brought from Leningrad and Yerevan, electrical equipment and oak beams for spectator benches from Ukraine, furniture from Riga and Kaunas.

Luzhniki was built in record time short term— in 450 days! Alas, the famous Trinity Church was destroyed during construction, but they are going to restore it (like the legendary stadium itself) for the 2018 World Cup, which will be held in Russia. As in the glorious times of "departure olympic teddy bear”, Luzhniki will have to become the main arena of the championship, which is well deserved: this stadium is remembered by millions of people and the unique Olympic Games-80, and the last concert of the Kino group, and the formation of our the best football players, and even a unique dish of work Picasso, the shape of which, they say, was inspired by ... the Luzhniki arena! (The dish, by the way, is stored in the storerooms of the stadium.) Brezhnev I came to cheer, although I didn’t like sports, - employees of the Luzhniki Sports Museum told AiF. - Sometimes he liked to sit at the games of Spartak, hockey. We kept a wide cup for tea for him. It seemed to him that his eyebrows might freeze, and a lot of steam rose from this cup.

There are other stadiums in Moscow with interesting fate... So let's start going to them right now, without waiting for the official opening of the 2018 championship. Support for athletes, and training for us ...
