Football fans cannot believe how a CSKA Moscow game still miraculously went ahead despite freezing sub-zero temperatures.

In what was the Russian side’s last home match of the year, the players were greeted with less than favourable conditions.

The VEB Arena stadium can be seen absolutely covered in a blizzard of heavy snowfall.
