Case with wrestler Polonkoyev not only, occurred in the country lately. Not so long ago the Dagestan football player Shamil Lakhiyalov acting for the Samara club "Krylja Sovetov" turned away when played the anthem of Russia. Later the football player explained it with strong excitement of that returned on native stadium in Makhachkala.

The similar case happened and to the halfback of "Zenith", the member of Russian national team on soccer by Igor Denisov. With the Angers team during the anthem of Russia Denisov faced a match among football players, having closed ears hands. Another time it, besides during anthem sounding instead of standing, having put a hand on heart, I preferred to tie laces. However, these two cases didn't become a subject of an extensive discussion.http://smartnews.ru/
