Article in Sovetsky Sport on 18 April 1989
Some international media mentioned about an article about the Luzhniki disaster, published by Sovetsky Sport on 18 April 1989, few days after the Hillsborough disaster, and three months before the notorius "black secret" article.[1][2] However, I was not able to locate the text of this article. It looks like it was actually a list of the football disasters in the history, and Luzhniki disaster was mentioned among others. --Potorochin (talk) 15:38, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Photos of the match
This match was not considered to be very important and there were very few of journalists on the stadium. The only good photos of the game, which depict the fans on the tribunes, I found only in the Italian "La tragedia segreta del Luzhniki"[3] article. --Potorochin (talk) 17:09, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Video footage of the match
Unfortunately, no video footage of the 1982 crush or its aftermath was made. But the footage from the match itself do exist. It depicts the moments of the first and the second[4] goals. The only video footage, which shows some distress on a stadium is a several seconds long episode of the policemen rushing from the edges of the pitch to one of the stadium exits (even by jumping across the rows of seats), supposedly after they received a report of a stampede there. --Potorochin (talk) 17:57, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
