Academy graduate Vyacheslav Grulev kickstarted Aleksandr Kulchy’s temporary reign in charge of Dynamo Moscow with a first-half opener. He then set up Daniil Lesovoy for a second after the break as the winger capitalised on some sloppy defending by Aleksandr Martynovich to register his first goal for the club.
