Stalemate lifts Ufa out of bottom two 

FC Ufa 0-0 Zenit St. Petersburg
Saturday 8 May, Neftyanik Stadium

Man of the Match: Aleksandr Belenov (Ufa) 

A strong Zenit side found a stubborn Ufa too difficult to get past as the hosts claimed a valuable goalless draw. 

With the last kick of the first half, Aleksandr Belenov flung himself to palm away Sardar Azmoun's penalty. 

Late in the second half, Malcom also smacked a free kick against the crossbar with Belenov beaten, but Ufa held out for a point against the champions. 

Ufa move up to 14th on 22 points, while newly-crowned champions Zenit move onto 62 points.
