Russia U20 win the Future Cup in Saint Petersburg!

Thanks to an emphatic 6:1 triumph over the under 20 Belarusian national team, Russia U20 won the 2024 Future Cup in Saint Petersburg!

Two goals in the opening stanza - with the second being brilliantly orchestrated between SKA Saint Petersburg teammates Nikita Surayev and Nikita Nedopyokin - set our players on their way.

When already three down, Belarus did respond with a marker of their own, but it made little difference to the flow of proceedings and our team netted a further three consecutive goals to see the game out with ease.

With three wins from three matches, our under 20 side have finished in first place of the standings ahead of Belarus!
