Gavrilov Sergey

I verified the information about the match Italy-Egypt 11-3. According to the famous Italian book Almanacco Illustrato del Calcio, the match was played on 10-06-1928, but according to IFFHS that game was played on 09-06-1928. I think that IFFHS is always correct, so I have corrected the information here. When I have time, I will inform you about the other issues that you have pointed out. We keep in contact. --VAN ZANT (msg) 11:30, 6 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

I wrote about this at all Italian sites, of course, my English was difficult to understand. I got a reply from this site http://forza_azzurri.homestead.com/Hist_Team_Hon.html at the very bottom of the page, tell about the year 1928, there in the text of the story corrected date
All the Italian sites, and all the books that were published in Italian and translated and published in Europe, including in Russia, writing the date of the game June 10, 1928 You will be hard to convince everyone else http://forza_azzurri.homestead.com/play_gl_sp1.html Correcting the date as described above in one place, in all other places the site is still mentioned date 10.6.1928

When I have time, I will discuss with the Italian user about this matter here, as soon as possible. --VAN ZANT (msg) 21:15, 6 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

I think that IFFHS is the best football expert in the world, so I think that the correct result of the match First Vienna FC - Hungária FC Budapest is 1-0 and not 2-1. Thanks for your message: I will correct the wrong datas. If you want, you can communicate with me also in French, in Spanish and of course in Italian. --VAN ZANT (msg) 21:15, 6 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

Hi Sergey! Sorry for the trouble, but I have a question about the legendary Soviet coach Gavriil Kačalin (Гавриил Качалин). Do you know which is his correct date of birth? Fifa.com declares 20-03-1911, as you can read here, while many Russian websites declare 17-01-1911. It's a very complicated issue, but if you know something more about this matter, please, inform me. See you soon! --VAN ZANT (msg) 20:43, 10 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

• Hi VAN ZANT. Gavriil Kačalin born January 17, 1911. It is written in all the Russian books.

as written in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavriil_Kachalin There are several sites, mostly German, which was written the not correct date of birth. Here is one site Photo graves Gavriil Kačalin http://sport-necropol.narod.ru/katchalin.html buried also relatives of the family.
Will be other questions, you can ask, I answer. --Gavrilov Sergey (msg) 22:44, 11 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

Many thanks for your answer, Sergey. The link you have posted is extremely precious! --VAN ZANT (msg) 11:21, 12 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

Dear Sergey, some days ago, you contacted me about the match Olympique de Marseille - AC Milan 1-0 (goal: Chris Waddle) played on 20-03-1991. That match was suspended because Milan abandoned the pitch and Uefa subsequently awarded a 3-0 win to Olympique de Marseille. I am completely sure about this matter, because I've consulted several Italian books. According to Uefa's purposes, Uefa assignes equally the goal to Chris Waddle. In fact, some months ago, I contacted Uefa and they informed me that:

Player appearances and minutes played

The minutes played until the abandonment of a match are considered as the minutes played in the match. This definition is for statistical calculations only.

Goalscoring

The goals scored in the match attributed to the player shall be included in the overall statistics. This definition is for statistical calculations only.

Disciplinary

Any disciplinary sanctions entering the abandoned match that is in some way played but later forfeited have been served (i.e. in the context that the match has been played, any player with a two-match suspension entering the game, one match has been served, while any player with a one-match suspension entering the game, this suspension has now been served).

All bookings from the abandoned match itself are recorded and shall be applied to any subsequent match.

I hope it helps. Goodbye for now! --VAN ZANT (msg) 20:58, 22 feb 2011 (CET)Rispondi

Hi Sergey, I think I've found out the "truth" about the 1995 Intertoto Cup. If you please take a look at the video of the game Strasbourg-Tirol Innsbruck 6-1 exactly at this moment, you can see that a Strasbourg's player is grasping the Intertoto trophy. For this reason, the match played on August 22, 1995 was valid for the Intertoto Cup: Strasbourg conquered the trophy, and not Tirol Innsbruck. Also, some days ago, I contacted the German club Karlsruher Sport-Club and they confirmed me that they only won the 1996 edition, not the 1995 one. --VAN ZANT (msg) 11:32, 23 giu 2013 (CEST)Rispondi

Hi again. Yes, when I contacted Karlsruher, I advised them that, according to UEFA, they are the "winners" of the 1995 Intertoto Cup. But they clearly answered me that the only trophy they won is the 1996 edition. Please note that uefa.com is not always reliable. In fact, the same website, but in Italian, in this page, reports that "FC Girondins de Bordeaux, una delle due vincitrici dell'edizione inaugurale della Coppa UEFA Intertoto" that is to say: "FC Girondins de Bordeaux, one of the two winners of the first edition of the UEFA Intertoto Cup". Also, take a look at Hertha Berlin's profile: uefa.com states that they won the 2006 Intertoto Cup, but Newcastle United was the only winner of that edition! But unfortunately the issue is still not clear. I can also suppose this kind of situation: the matches Strasbourg-Tirol Innsbruck and Bordeaux-Karlsruher were valid both for the 1995 Intertoto Cup and for the 1995-96 UEFA Cup. I remember that a similar situation happened in South America, when the 1998 Recopa Sudamericana was also valid for the 1999 Copa Mercosur. But, at the moment, I still believe it's more probable that Strasbourg-Tirol Innsbruck and Bordeaux-Karlsruher were valid for the 1995 Intertoto Cup, for the reasons I told you in my previous message. --VAN ZANT (msg) 11:37, 30 giu 2013 (CEST)Rispondi
