Rubin rescue draw against Krylia

Rubin Kazan 1-1 Krylia Sovetov Samara
Sunday August 15, Ak Bars Arena, Kazan

Goals: Rubin - Hwang 63’; Krylia Sovetov - Sergeev 59’
Man of the Match: Krylia Sovetov - Anton Zinkovskiy 

Fresh off a knockout in Europe, Rubin could only manage a draw against newly promoted Krylia. Samara star forward Ivan Sergeev scored to put his team in front at the hour mark, but Korean midfielder Hwang In-Beom equalised minutes later. 

Rubin are still second in the league, but their perfect start to the season is over. Krylia are still winless, and in the relegation zone.
