Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds RZD Arena will turn into a battlefield for FK Lokomotiv Moskva and FK Krasnodar.
- 5' Anton Miranchuk needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 18 Yellow cards this season.
- 10' Both keepers have barely been tested. FK Lokomotiv Moskva and FK Krasnodar are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 20' Yurii Gazinskii, a Russia , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Vedran Corluka made 355 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 46' A change in the FK Lokomotiv Moskva ranks — Benedikt Howedes exits the field as Brian Idowu enters on 46.
- 51' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Alaksandar Martynovic suffering a number of foals already.
