Dunfermline to play CSKA Moscow

Thursday's News from Cyprus; two matches lined up.

Some pictures of the teams sharing the hotel with Dunfermline U20s. All first teams with the exception of Dunfermline and CSKA Moscow U21s.  Stephen Wright, John Potter and Grant Petrie watched the training this morning of Levski Sofia (above), Legia Warsaw, CSKA Moskow and Khimki FC from Russia.

Levksi are here for a few weeks, then return home to Bulgaria for a few days and then come back out for a few more weeks. Legia spend a few weeks here then go to Spain for another training camp.

Dunfermline will play CSKA Moscow U21s tomorrow (Friday) at 2.30pm and then head off out to a local Cypriot taverna in the evening.

The Pars have organised to play a match on Sunday v the first team of Khimki FC from Russia. Khimki is a town of over 200,000 situated between Moscow and St Petersburg, they play in the Russian Second Division. This will surely be a great experience for our young players.
