  Introduction
  
  Sport plays an important role in the life of modern societies. Sport as a cultural phenomenon can reflect the most significant features of different people’s life and development. Consequently, linguistic aspect of sport investigation is very topical today. Nevertheless, many urgent questions concerning the investigation of special sport vocabulary have not get any sufficient theoretic and practical comprehension both in English and Russian linguistic literature.
  Having chosen English and Russian sport lexical units as the objects of the present research, we had regarded to the fact that sport layer of lexis does not have any systematic description as a national lexico-phraseological system. But it is known that sport as a component part of cultural life of the modern society has won the whole recognition, so the sphere of language communication connected with the sport theme is very broad.
  Publicistic style has its own specification because it influences the audience. One of the main characteristics of the modern genre of mass media is the metaphoric use of sport vocabulary. More over, a lot of special nominations in the sphere of sport are activated in the common usage in the English and Russian languages. The process of metaphorization of sport vocabulary occurs effectively in the newspapers language. It allows the journalists to make their reportages very bright, picturesque, figurative, etc.
  Consequently, the topicality of the present research consists, firstly, in the insufficient linguistic investigation of sport vocabulary, and, secondly, in the great stylistic potential of metaphorization in the process of formation of sport lexical units.

  As we can see, classification of E.S. Barkhudarov contains analyzed publicistic style.
  Otherwise, in the classification of V.I. Provotorov this functional style is mentioned in a form of newspaper-publicistic style which exists together with other four functional styles:
  - officially-scientific style;
  - technical style;
  - colloquial style;
  - belles-lettres style [Provotorov 2001, p.101].
  A.N. Parshin in his classification does not mention publicistic style. From his point of view, there is the following division of functional styles in the language:
  - belles-lettres;
  - scientific and technical texts and documentation;
  - political texts;
  - military texts;
