St.-Petersburg FC Zenit ultras are highly organized faithful fans, notable for emotional and showy support of their team on both home and away games. Ultras subculture is common in most of European countries, including Russia.

2010 appeared to be significant year as for Russian football in the whole, so for Zenit in particular. St.-Petersburg team became Champions of Russian Premier League, Zenit ultras celebrated their thirty-year-anniversary of their existence, Russia got the right for holding 2018 Football World Cup and the end of the year was marked with football fansâ?? participation in mass nationalistic public rallies in several cities which led to the meeting of prime minister Putin V.V. with main Russian ultras-movementsâ?? leaders.
