Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: FK Spartak Moskva gets underway.
- 5' FK Krasnodar looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Eduard Spertsyan scoring 1 goals.
- 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 15' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with FK Krasnodar winning 100% of all matches.
- 20' The travelling FK Krasnodar supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' FK Spartak Moskva is showing some good football. However, FK Spartak Moskva are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Lucas Olaza made 175 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 35' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 38' What a strike from Christopher Martins! The score is 1-0.
- 43' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 46' Goal! Eduard Spertsyan scores his 45 goal in 266 matches.
- 51' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 51 minutes.
- 56' Jubal Junior was booked on 56.
- 61' It looks surprising FK Spartak Moskva does not make any changes. Aleksandr Maksimenko has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 65' Time for substitution for FK Spartak Moskva. Manfred Ugalde is replaced by Pablo Solari.
- 70' Gedson Fernandes needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Yellow cards this season.
- 74' Another change for FK Krasnodar made on 74 minute. Joao Batxi leaves to be changed by Juan Boselli.
- 79' It looks like no one’s ball. FK Spartak Moskva is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 81' Time for substitution for FK Spartak Moskva. Daniil Denisov is replaced by Igor Dmitriev.
- 85' Sensational shot from Jubal Junior. FK Krasnodar is back in the lead.
- 90' Supporters expect more eagerness from Jhon Cordoba, as he is very good at scoring at Otkrytie Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- With this win, FK Krasnodar is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
