You are in front of you-an updated, supplemented reprint of the Bestseller book “Blocade Football: The History of Legendary Matches”, published in 2020. This is the result of many years of work of the authors to search and analyze printed materials, photographs and newsreels dedicated to football in blockade Leningrad. Numerous archives, museums, libraries and private meetings in various cities of our country and abroad were involved. Relatives of blockade football players, as well as the older generation, who sent strikingly interesting materials, helped a lot to study. As a result, almost every word said about block football was checked. And, most importantly, the mechanism of distortions that the history of commemorative matches for decades has been subjected to.

The book is of interest to a wide range of readers, it is filled with documents published for the first time and rare photographs. It is also attractive to a description of unknown events that have not yet been covered in domestic literature.
