Russian Football Premier League jointly with charity fund of sports portal Championat.com  Oranzhevoe Nebo  and FC Lokomotiv had a charity event within the frames of the social project Kind Hearts League in the SOGAZ-Russian Football Championship MD 15 match Lokomotiv – Spartak.

On Sunday, 30 November, children from Orphanage No 51 and SOS-village  Tomilino arrived to Lokomotiv stadium, center of sports life of Moscow eastern districts. The stadium staff met the children warmly with hot tea and tasty pies. Then the children had a stadium tour which started from the legendary locomotive.

After examining arena and hearing the story on its life on matchdays and non-match days, the kids learned about club history in FC Lokomotiv museum. Here they met Dmitry Sennikov, who was twice Champion of Russia, twice Super Cup of Russia holder, three times Cup of Russia winner and CIS Cup winner. He told them about start of his football career, replied their questions and had his photo taken with all those who wished.

After that a tasty lunch awaited the children. After it they went to the football tournament, which  was organized indoors on this day, there they watched the playing of the same age kids and talked to Lokomotiv midfield Dmitry Tarasov.

And at the end of this wonderful day they watched the derby of the capital match between Lokomotiv and Spartak. The children heartily supported  their favourite team and enjoyed the game immensely.

Russian Football Premier League would like to express our most heartfelt thanks for the warmth given to the children to FC Lokomotiv staff and personally to Olga Smorodskaya, the club President, to the sports portal Chempionat.com, transportation company KLavto and Russian Radio.
