Thanks for the welcome home.
Yes, Stadium only cost 597 Million Euros! What a fantastic atmosphere generated around the ground, starting with AC/DC playing on the big screens as the Teams came out. (They are very BIG screens!)
Even the Substitutions have to be seen to be believed, the man on the PA gives it everything as the player leaves the Pitch, the Zenit hardcore following do their team proud.
Ground Capacity is around 68K
58K was there on the day I was there.
The ticket price was 2000 Rubles (£25.00 ish)
Last time I went to a Zenit match, at the old Stadium it cost around £5.00, 3-4 years ago.

Wondering which AC/DC track they blasted out, i think we should go with that, if it was Colback 'Big Balls', Dias 'A Touch To Much', Robert Rosario 'A Whole Lotta Rosie', Joe Lolley 'Shoot To Thrill, Benalouane 'You Shook Me All Night Long' or maybe 'Got You By The Balls'
I know, i guess it was 'For Those About To Rock' (we salute you)
'Money Talks', 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap', Caught with your Pants Down ha ha ha ... mmmm
I like it though make a bit more of the substitutions

It was difficult to say what the track was, with all the noise.
I will go with Whole Lotta Rosie, one of my favourites, I saw them once at Derby Assembly rooms, before they became really famous, I had never heard of them, but was blown away when they came on, what a performance!

So for those who unfortunately can't make it to the world famous City Ground today, where will you all be watching?
I will be watching on Paros Island Greece.
