Футбольный клуб «Зенит»

Saint-Petersburg, Russia, 10-06-2011

Here is one interesting postcard that i received from Russia, from St. Petersburg, and as you can see on the card is first team of FC Zenit, or FC Stalinec (earlyer name of team).

Football Club Zenit (Russian: Футбольный клуб «Зенит», English: Zenith) is a Russian football club from the city of Saint-Petersburg. Founded in 1925 (or in 1914, according to some Russian sources), the club plays in the Russian Premier League and currently is one of the strongest in the country. Zenit were the 2007 and 2010 champions of the Russian Premier League and the winners of both the 2008 UEFA Cup and the 2008 UEFA Super Cup.

It's one of my fav cards, since i like football. so here is little more about Zenit  here. I got this card from  Konstantin, he contacted me on Last fm, when i saw my blog, and he thought my hobby is cool, so he wanted to  make my collection richer by one more Russian card, and he did it, he sent me this Zenit card, Spasibo tovarish.
