- 5' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.

- 11' Controversy at the stadium! Igor Diveev argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 16' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Rashid Rakhimov will be considering his options from the bench.
- 21' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
- 26' Kristijan Bistrovic needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 16 Yellow cards this season.

- 36' The 39-year-old Oleg Ivanov has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 39' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Zaurbek Pliev.

- 55' Over 55 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.

- 64' The deadlock is broken! Fedor Chalov gets on the scoresheet on 64 minutes.
- 67' Arnor Sigurdsson was booked on 67.
- 72' Milad Mohammadi has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.

- 81' Fresh legs for RFK Akhmat Grozny! Bekim Balaj comes on to replace Zaurbek Pliev.
- 86' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mario Fernandes made 398 appearances and scored 12 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 90' Rizvan Utsiev was booked on 90.
- PFC CSKA Moskva celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
