Leonid Slutsky guided Rubin Kazan to a season double over CSKA Moscow - the manager’s first in his career - thanks to Djordje Despotovic’s glancing header just before the hour mark. The visitors missed the chance to return to the top of the table after breaking their six-match unbeaten run, ending the game with just two of their 20 attempts on goal being on target.

Rubin move up to eighth on 24 points, while CSKA stay second on 32 points.
