Photo Daily | November 23 | FC Zenit

FC Zenit
We end this week’s Russia series with a look at the supporters of FC Zenit Saint Petersburg celebrating at their Petrovsky Stadium. Zenit receive massive financial backing from Russian energy giant Gazprom — one of the world’s richest corporations and who also sponsor Schalke 04 in Germany.

Coached by Dick Advocaat, Zenit clinched their first ever Russian championship last week, to match their tally in the Soviet days.
