Events

Match Events

  • 0' The ball is rolling at Otkrytie Arena. FK Spartak Moskva are looking to make home advantage count against FK Rostov.
  • 5' The travelling FK Rostov supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 10' 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 Daniil Odoevskiy suffering a number of foals already.
  • 11' That looks like a foul for a card for Daniil Denisov.
  • 16' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Valeriy Karpin will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 21' A meaty challenge results in booking for Andrey Langovich on 21.
  • 26' FK Spartak Moskva are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined FK Rostov backline.
  • 28' Nail Umyarov puts FK Spartak Moskva on the lead.
  • 33' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 34' What a strike from Shamar Nicholson! The score is 2-0.
  • 37' A moment of madness from Shamar Nicholson on 37 minutes earns him a card. FK Spartak Moskva will be frustrated.
  • 42' Marquinhos has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 189 appearances.
  • 47' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Oleg Reabciuk made 136 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 49' Shamar Nicholson doubles the advantage! 3-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 54' 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.
  • 59' FK Rostov manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Kirill Shchetinin is hanging Mohammad Mohebi on the field on 59 minute.
  • 60' It is a substitution in FK Rostov team. Andrey Langovich is replaced by Nikolay Komlichenko on 60 minute.
  • 64' Daniil Denisov makes way for Alexis Duarte at the 64 minute mark. A tactical switch from FK Spartak Moskva.
  • 69' FK Rostov started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 69.
  • 72' Theo Bongonda has so much to prove this time. He replaces Manfred Ugalde on 72 minute.
  • 74' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Ruslan Litvinov.
  • 79' FK Spartak Moskva have won 424 goals from 359 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 80' Fresh legs for FK Spartak Moskva! Ricardo Mangas comes on to replace Marquinhos.
  • 85' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 90' The 32-year-old Aleksey Sutormin has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 1 assists is a remarkable return.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for FK Rostov.
