Russian footballers spent on champagne. Kokorin and Mamaev in Monaco: champagne to the anthem of Russia. Ignashevich - Normandy
Alexander Kokorin, Pavel Mamaev
At the European Championships, it did not affect the mood too much. For example, Alexander Kokorin (Zenit) and Pavel Mamaev (Krasnodar), who play for the national team, went to lick their wounds in Monaco, where they come off to the fullest.
The other day, the athletes, according to media reports, threw a grand party in the popular Monte Carlo nightclub, Twiga, which cost them 250 thousand euros (or even more). The footballers smoked hookah, drank and had fun, and their wives, Daria Valitova and Alana Mamaeva, danced right on the sofas.
As it became known thanks to eyewitnesses, Kokorin and Mamaev ordered 500 bottles of Armand De Brignac champagne, 500 euros each. The champagne was brought out to the anthem of Russia, with fireworks and sparklers - there was so much of it that some of the guests simply took the bottles from the tables.
Video recordings of the binge spread across the Internet at lightning speed and provoked a negative reaction from both the Russian authorities and ordinary Internet users.
A lot of memes have appeared on Twitter:
Investigative Committee spokesman Vladimir Markin also caustically commented on the incident on his Twitter page:
The wide public outcry caused by the behavior of the national team players forced the management of the Krasnodar club to take action, for which Mamaev stands - the midfielder of the Russian national team and Krasnodar, was transferred to the youth squad of the Kuban club:
In connection with the information that has appeared in the media about the party with the participation of the football player of our club Pavel Mamaev, we consider it our duty to state the following: we believe that such behavior is outrageous and unacceptable for the player of FC Krasnodar. In this connection, within the framework of the current contract, disciplinary and financial measures will be applied to him,
- said the general director of FC Krasnodar Vladimir Khashig.

Pavel Mamaev and Alexander Kokorin with teammatesRussian Minister of Sports and RFU President Vitaly Mutko commented on the situation when he talked about how the national team will be formed for the following championships:
Believe me, the behavior of the candidates for the national team will be taken into account. Everyone spends time to the best of their upbringing.
However, the players deny all accusations against them: Kokorin said that he had nothing to do with the party.
It would be foolish to deny that we were present at this establishment. This happened four or five days ago. Anyone who knows this place can confirm that there are always many Russian visitors there. So it was this time. Someone was celebrating a birthday, and we were just there. Naturally, everyone saw these ordered bottles, heard the anthem of Russia, but why attribute the organization of all this to us? We have nothing to do with the bills for this party or its entourage, and with the money mentioned in the media, it would be possible to buy not only champagne, but the whole establishment,
- quoted by Kokorin TASS.
Alexander KokorinNote that 25-year-old Kokorin and 27-year-old Mamaev are among the highest paid Russian footballers: according to media reports, Kokorin earned 5 million euros last year, Mamaev - 1.6 million euros.
Mamaev, by the way, has recently been trapped for the second time because of his love of life on a grand scale: after the defeat at Euro 2016, Mamaev posted on Instagram a photo taken in a private jet on the way to Nice - and immediately became anti-hero of the country.

He was transferred to the youth team of his club after a video from a party in Monte Carlo appeared on the Life portal, where, to the sound of the Russian anthem, guests of the famous nightclub were served champagne worth 500 euros per bottle. Presumably, the order was made by the striker together with Mamaev.

In the video, the players are sitting at a table, where waiters come up in an endless line with full baskets of champagne. Kokorin smokes a hookah and smiles, Mamaev captured from the back, but easily recognizable by his tattoos. The removal of champagne (experts recognize the elite brand Armand de Brignac by the labels) is accompanied by the anthem of Russia and a pyrotechnic show.
In the afternoon they will write that they paid for the banquet Kokorin with Mamaev, will call the amount of 250 thousand euros. Acquaintances of the players will claim that everyone was treated by other people. In the evening, a statement to the TASS agency will be made by Kokorin himself: "Someone was celebrating a birthday, but we were just there."
However, few people care about details - footballers Russian national team disgraced all over the country, even a representative of the Investigative Committee puts in his 5 kopecks, jokes about the fact that our players are not able to get into their own glasses. The Minister of Sports speaks out reluctantly Vitaly Mutko, promises that the players' rest will not go unnoticed.
Reacts more promptly and concretely than anyone Krasnodar: through the mouth of the CEO Vladimir Khashiga informs through the official website of the club about the link Mamaeva to the youth team. “Outrageous behavior” (quoted by Khashig) will also result in a monetary fine.
"Zenith" does not hurry with the statement, but in the end repeats the step Krasnodar- link in Zenit-2 and fine. The spice is added by the fact that on the day of the appearance of the video Kokorin just joined the team at the training camp in Austria. Actually, it is from there that the football player's attempts to justify himself are heard, drowned in the general indignant chorus.

Sanctions met with approval, especially - the statement Krasnodar... Fans on the Internet speak in the spirit that at least someone had the courage to call a spade a spade. The club's image, already one of the best in Russia, is growing even higher.
There are also those who defend the players. Unexpectedly, a deputy from the Liberal Democratic Party stands up for them Igor Lebedev, the theses are simple: this is their honest earnings and official money, no one violated the law, and from the point of view of behavior, nothing reprehensible.
The country is trying to understand what a normal upbringing and defiant behavior is, where the right to privacy ends and the ethics of a public person begins, how the sports results of Russian football and the level of salaries in this very football correlate.
And the main question is: what if the results were different? Is it possible that hypothetical successes in any way make this kind of party normal in the eyes of a society, many of which do not earn even half a bottle of champagne from Monte Carlo in a month?
UPD
The footballer of Zenit and the Russian national team Alexander Kokorin commented on the scandalous party for the first time. According to him, everything happened 4-5 days ago. In an interview with TASS, he categorically denied the information that the party cost them 250 thousand euros. There are always a lot of Russian visitors there. Someone was celebrating a birthday, and he and Mamaev happened to be at the celebration. They have nothing to do with the accounts for this party, its entourage and the performance of the anthem.
___________________________________________________________________
The players of the Russian national team spent 250 thousand euros on the party. The players of the national team - Alexander Kokorin and Pavel Mamaev - were captured during their holidays in Monte Carlo.
Forward Alexander Kokorin and midfielder Pavel Mamaev decided to celebrate the departure of the Russian football team from the European Championship "without departing" from the host country of the tournament. Having barely left France, the athletes headed to Monaco. The players who did not score a single goal decided to celebrate the early start of their vacation in one of the most prestigious and expensive nightclubs in Monte Carlo. To warm up, they staged an alcoholic adventure: the players demonstrated the breadth of the Russian soul and treated all those present with the elite champagne "Armand de Brignac". This move cannot be called anti-crisis: the cost of one bottle is close to the sum of two average salaries in Russian regions - about five hundred euros. According to the waiters, during the evening the guests emptied about 25 boxes of sparkling wine. Alcohol was brought into the hall to the accompaniment of the national anthem, sparklers and enthusiastic cries of those present.
The video footage from this celebration of life was published on their Instagram by the guests of the club. The heroines of one of the videos were the girlfriends of the football players - they showed good spirits and danced right on the sofas. The holiday that happened on the Cote d'Azur has already been commented on by Vitaly Mutko. According to him, the Ministry of Sports does not intend to react to the defiant behavior of the Russian national team players at the moment.
It is already known that in punishment for participating in the party, Pavel Mamaev will train with the youth squad of the Krasnodar club. Its director called the player's behavior outrageous and promised that the midfielder would be fined under the current contract. Duma communist Vadim Solovyov announced that he would send a request to the Ministry of Sports demanding an assessment of the behavior of Mamaev and Kokorin. And one of the representatives of the LDPR, in an interview with the LifeNEWS portal, suggested that the players drank champagne for 250 thousand euros, because they were sad because of the loss at Euro 2016.
At the European Championship in France, the Russian national football team was unable to leave the group, having played in a draw with England, as well as lost to Slovakia and Wales.
A video of a party has appeared on the Web, which was staged in one of the elite clubs of Monte Carlo by the players of the national team Alexander Kokorin and Pavel Mamaev. To the accompaniment of the Russian anthem, the players drank all night and treated the visitors to the establishment with expensive champagne, as well as smoked hookah - apparently marking the loud departure of our team from the European Football Championship.
The waiters do not have enough hands - on their shoulders, in buckets, on a special stretcher - to carry out all the ordered champagne. Almost all the staff were driven to the Russian footballers in the elite club Monte Carlo. Our athletes - Pavel Mamaev and Alexander Kokorin - are watching, lounging on the couch. With a hookah. To the anthem of Russia.
The string of people with bottles did not seem to end. That on the stretcher - bottles of Armand de Brignac - golden brut, elite sparkling wine. To find out how much the party cost the players, we contacted the administration of that very club.
How much does one bottle of Armand de Brignac cost?
Champagne costs 550 euros.
And order a table?
Ordering a regular table costs from 500 euros. And a VIP table - from 1500 euros.
Ten bottles, thirty, now a hundred. Shocked users on the Internet counted even more.
If the information that 500 bottles were bought per night is correct, then it turns out that only 275 thousand Euros were spent on champagne. The data, of course, still need to be checked, but the figure is cosmic. In rubles, it is almost 20 million.
“After such a disastrous performance of our national team, we need to hide and not show ourselves to anyone. And not to express and show your attitude,” says the former coach of the Russian national team Valery Gazzaev. “This is unacceptable, you need to be more modest. you need to lead. "
The players, of course, could afford this financially. Forward of the national team Alexander Kokorin: for the entire European Championship, however, no goals scored, not even assists. The salary, according to media reports, is 5 million euros per year. Midfielder of the Russian national team and the Krasnodar club Pavel Mamaev, the one who, after the European Championship, posted a photo from a private jet on a social network, stating that the national team's result at Euro is their maximum.
On a new trick of Mamaev in his club "Krasnodar": the player was transferred to the youth squad, financial penalties are being prepared.
"The behavior of candidates or players of the former national team will be taken into account when preparing the national team," said the Minister of Sports Vitaly Mutko.
Despite this, the fans on social networks were unstoppable today. The comments on the Internet are such that it is difficult to quote even a word of them in the media. Users write that it was especially offensive to look at our athletes against the background of the Icelandic national team. The team, which included ordinary postmen, and the players' salary - 30 thousand euros per year, 166 times less than Kokorin's, made it to the quarterfinals. Their native Iceland. The call, which the world learned after the first goal against Portugal, for which Cristiano Ronaldo himself stands, in the central square of Reykjavik today was chanted by tens of thousands of fans.
How our players will be greeted after the celebrations in Monte Carlo is another question. Despite the fact that messages are already appearing on the Web - they say they haven’t drank it yet, the fans are already demanding full explanations from the athletes.
It seems that some representatives of national football are not able to live without curses from their compatriots. This is the only way to explain the next incident involving the players of the Russian national team.
While the Icelandic fans met, as heroes, their players who made it to the quarterfinals, the players of the Russian team, who did not even consider it necessary to explain themselves to their compatriots, went on vacation in the darkest places of the world.
The Life.ru portal published a video showing a party hosted in Monte Carlo by two footballers of the Russian national team - Pavel Mamaev and Alexander Kokorin.
The video shows how dozens of bottles of elite champagne are carried out on huge trays decorated with lights. The action takes place to the sounds of the anthem of Russia.
Witnesses claim that Kokorin and Mamaev were vacationing at the local Twiga nightclub. During the party, they allegedly bought about 500 bottles of elite champagne "Armand de Brignac" at a price of 500 euros apiece. Thus, the players spent about 250 thousand euros on champagne alone.
Kokorin and Mamaev smoked hookah, treated everyone, and their life partners danced on sofas. Apparently, the footballers who failed to shake the imagination of the fans at Euro 2016 managed to surprise the regulars of the Monte Carlo clubs.
Million Euro Boys
Immediately after leaving the European Championship, in the group stage of which the Russian national team lost two matches and drew one, Pavel Mamaev has already become the protagonist of one scandal.
Internet users quickly found out that a flight of such an aircraft can cost about 70 thousand dollars, while ordering it in advance. Judging by how quickly Mamaev left France, he ordered the liner even before the start of Euro 2016 in order to fly away immediately after the group stage. That is, the player did not even count on the participation of the Russian national team in the playoffs.
Mamaev's trick caused a storm of indignation. But, as it is now clear, the footballer himself does not see anything shameful in his actions and continues in the same spirit.27-year-old Pavel Mamaev has been playing for FC Krasnodar since 2013. The approximate amount of his contract until 2016 was about 1.4 million euros. In 2016, Mamaev signed a new three-year agreement. According to some reports, his salary has increased significantly.
25-year-old Alexander Kokorin moved to Zenit St. Petersburg in 2016, having refused an invitation from English Arsenal. The estimated salary of the striker at the St. Petersburg club is 3.5 million euros per year.
“It was not champagne. These are their tears, which they wept because of the absence of the national team. "
The news of the party in Monte Carlo could not fail to cause a new explosion of emotions among Russian fans.
“Remember the hussars during the war with Napoleon. They did the same. But the hussars then won the war and entered Paris, and it is not clear what these two were celebrating.)) "
"The guys are worried about the results of the euro ... We decided to restore the reputation and authority of Russia ... Two bastards."
“Burners of life. Merchants of the XXI century. From dirt to Kings. This is not good. "
“Wretches, how not to drink here. Although champagne until the morning is drunk either by aristocrats, or ... "
"Now it is at least clear what they think about when they stand before the game on the field and listen to the anthem ..."
“Even considering their income, this is an idiotic act. To be frank, the guys were out of their means ".
“It was not champagne. These are their tears, which they wept because of the absence of the national team. This is their sweat that they shed while playing on the national team. This is their blood from broken, wounded, mutilated bodies. "
Mutko promised to take into account the behavior
Of course, only the most correct statements are given here. Most of the lines cannot be quoted due to profanity.
Some people recalled a strange incident during the Euro - Pavel Mamaev appeared in front of journalists with a broken eyebrow.
According to the official version, he hit the simulator in the gym. Unofficially, senior teammates punished him for inappropriate behavior and incorrect remarks to the head coach Leonid Slutsky.RFU President and Minister of Sports Vitaly Mutko reacted to the news from Monte Carlo. “Believe me, today the behavior of many people, including candidates and players of the previous team, will definitely be taken into account when forming the composition of the new team. And now you don't need to react to who photographed whom there, where they danced what dance. We will not do all this. Everyone acts in the measure of their upbringing, intellect, education. And I myself have not seen this, "- the portal" Championship.ru "quotes the words of Mutko.
