Orsk beat CSK VVS 4:1 in a club friendly on Thursday, 28 August 2026. The match ended with the hosts in comfortable control, extending a run that has seen them score freely in recent outings.
By then, Orsk had already shown plenty of attacking intent. They won 4:3 against AKM, then ran out 6:0 winners over Aktothe before a 5:1 victory against Kulager. Three wins in a row, with goals flowing both ways in one of those games.
CSK VVS have not found the same rhythm lately. Their last three matches brought a 5:4 win over Almetyevsk, followed by losses to Toros Neftekamsk and Bars. And here's the thing — they came into this fixture without confidence.
The result puts paid to any lingering belief that the visitors might be turning a corner. Orsk took advantage of what was on offer, while CSK VVS offered little resistance. Friendly matches often reveal more than league fixtures.
Neither side has anything riding on this beyond preparation. Orsk will take the momentum forward, while CSK VVS face the same questions they have been asking themselves.
