CSKA Moscow 1-0 Spartak Moscow
Monday 20 September, VEB Arena

Goal: CSKA - Zabolotny 82’
Sent off: CSKA - Zabolotny 90+1’
Man of the Match: Anton Zabolotny (CSKA)

Anton Zabolotny went from hero to zero as his scrappy late winner sealed the derby against Spartak - before he was sent off in added time for a second booking.

Quincy Promes thought he had put Rui Vitoria’s side in front in the second half, but his accurate finish was ruled out for offside.

With less than 10 minutes remaining, Zabolotny was in the right place at the right time to apply the finishing touch after a messy goalmouth scramble in the Spartak penalty area.

CSKA go seventh on 13 points, while Spartak remain ninth on 10 points.
