SAMARQAND appears to be Times BQ Extra Bold, artificially condensed, but it is no longer sold. A good substitute would be Newton Extra Bold, Paratype's version of the original Times typeface from 1932.

 

FOOTBALL CLUB and DINAMO appear to be a_Plakat Extra Bold, but I can't find a trusted purrchase/download site for it:

Plakat (1998) is a release by W. Chufarofsky & M. Slutsker of Arsenal Company and was once available as part of the Arsenal Font Collection, Vol. 4. It looks like Arsenal Company is defunct.
