A call to fans
Against the backdrop of the spread in the world of coronavirus, soccer players try not to stay away from the fight against it. So, the former captain of the Russian national team, Roman Shirokov, took part in the filming of a funny social video. The UEFA Cup winner urged fans to “stay at home” after “returning from abroad” or when characteristic symptoms appeared.
This is precisely the phrase he used during a memorable conflict with Zenit fans at Kazan airport.
Roman Shirokov recommends: sit at home. You are welcome.

Training "Yenisei"
Most of the domestic clubs temporarily stopped training in connection with the pandemic, and players are forced to practice at home.
But at the Yenisei, speaking at the FNL, they unexpectedly scheduled a training at 3 p.m. local time on March 26. The club management did not stop the decree of the Ministry of Sports of the Krasnoyarsk Territory on "closing sports facilities for the population" from March 24.
The club said that despite the decision of local authorities, "the Yenisei did not cancel the training." It is noted that the final decision on the continuation of classes will be made in the first half of the day, and "those who can’t arrive should not worry."
Prevention of infection from Bridge and Stoichkova
Meanwhile, the former captain of the Russian national team, Alexander Mostovoy, said that it was extremely difficult for him to give up sports because of restrictions imposed in Moscow. In the absence of physical activity, he fears gaining excess weight. Mostovoi also admitted that he “drank alcohol for complacency.”
And the best European football player in 1994, Hristo Stoichkov, who is currently in Miami, prefers more traditional ways to strengthen immunity.
“Home isolation helps us. I eat a lot of garlic and onions, drink hot water and take long baths to protect myself from this virus. With me is my wife and 80-year-old mother-in-law, whom we should take care of most. My daughter lives nearby, but I have not seen my grandson for a week. We must not take risks. This infection is very easily transmitted, ”Stundichkova quotes Mundo Deportivo.
Masks Ari and Moutinho
An important attribute of virus protection remains medical masks. Moreover, in some countries there is an acute shortage of them. In this regard, the striker of Krasnodar posted a selection of the most unusual home-made masks on social networks.
And Wolverhampton midfielder João Moutinho went even further and showed his subscribers how to make a protective mask out of ... cowards. The Portuguese and his wife pulled this garment over his head and tied it around his neck in such a way that he gently covered his entire face except his eyes. Perhaps this advice will help someone protect their health.

Despite the fact that many football players, due to the coronavirus, were left without a normal training process, they continue to keep fit at home and at the same time combine activities with everyday activities.

But the Russian striker “Celta” Fedor Smolov was not in the most pleasant situation. Before the striker really started playing in Spain, they stopped the season. In addition, the striker was unable to return home and was forced to remain in quarantine in Vigo.
Now the footballer must constantly be in the apartment in the company of another legionnaire of the “Celts” Dane Pione Sisto. In this situation, Smolov prefers to “kill time” at computer games.

The quarantine was extended until April 15, they did not let me go to Moscow. You can go to the street only at the pharmacy or for groceries. And, still with a dog for a walk. Someone is walking with dogs, someone is with girls. There special permission is needed. So the situation is normal - 22 degrees, the ocean, the sun, ”said Smolov during a live broadcast on Instagram.
Curious Lukaku
With much greater benefit for himself, quarantine striker of Milan “Inter” Romelu Lukaku conducts. During a forced pause, the Belgian received a coaching license. At the same time, the forward passed the UEFA online courses with the former Zenit midfielder Axel Witsel.
