Moscow Soccer Fans Chant Christ is Risen! -- Христос Воскрес!

I found this amazing news from last Sunday via StumbleUpon...
From Interfax:

Fans greet each other on Easter at soccer match in Moscow

Moscow, April 5, Interfax - Fans greeted each other on Easter at a Sunday evening soccer match at Moscow Lokomotiv stadium.
At the beginning of the second half of the match thousands of fans of Dynamo team started chanting "Christ is Risen!", an Interfax correspondent reports.
Thousands of fans of Lokomotiv team on the opposite side of the stadium responded by chanting "Truly He is Risen!"
The exchange took place several times.
The correspondent who has attended soccer matches for almost 50 years says it was the [first] occurrence of this kind in the history of Russian soccer.

Христос Воскрес! Christos Voskrese! -- ВОІСТИНУ ВОСКРЕС! Vaistinu Voskrese!
