  • 0' The wait is over. FK Zenit Sankt-Petersburg get us underway at Eleda Stadion.
  • 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Malmo FF side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 10' Wilmar Barrios is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for FK Zenit Sankt-Petersburg so far.

  • 28' Soren Rieks doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 33' 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 Andrei Mostovoi suffering a number of foals already.

  • 62' A meaty challenge results in booking for Dmitri Chistyakov on 62.
  • 67' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.

  • 83' Franz Brorsson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Malmo FF tonight.
  • 86' That is a Red card for FK Zenit Sankt-Petersburg. Dmitri Chistyakov will be fuming at that decision.
