Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: PFC CSKA Moskva gets underway.
- 4' Fedor Chalov doubles the advantage! 1-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 9' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 14' Over 14 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 19' The energy levels are beginning to show. Vladimir Fedotov might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 24' PFC CSKA Moskva currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 29' Both keepers have barely been tested. PFC CSKA Moskva and FK Rostov are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 32' The referee has no hesitation. Egor Golenkov is booked for FK Rostov — card on 32.
- 37' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering PFC CSKA Moskva that had 407 games and scored 423 goals.
- 42' Mohammad Mohebi is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for PFC CSKA Moskva so far.
- 47' 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 Denis Terentyev suffering a number of foals already.
- 52' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 57' The home supporters are growing impatient. PFC CSKA Moskva must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 61' Denis Terentyev has so much to prove this time. He replaces Daniil Utkin on 61 minute.
- 62' Danila Prokhin has so much to prove this time. He replaces Aleksey Mironov on 62 minute.
- 67' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 68' The Chile Victor Mendez breaks the deadlock on 68 minutes. 2-0!
- 73' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 78' The supporters are chanting for Kirill Shchetinin. He replaces Khoren Bairamyan on 78 minute.
- 81' That is a card for FK Rostov. Ivan Komarov will be fuming at that decision.
- 86' A quiet spell here at VEB Arena. FK Rostov seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 90' Poor challenge from Viktor Melekhin. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
- 90' Anton Zabolotnyi is replacing Fedor Chalov for the PFC CSKA Moskva side.
- 2-0 the final result. FK Rostov will be bitterly disappointed.
