RPL Matchday 24
Zenit St. Petersburg 3-1 Dynamo Moscow
Saturday 22 April, Gazprom Arena, St. Petersburg

Goals: Zenit – Malcom (pen 45, 68), Mostovoy (87); Dynamo – Fomin (80)
Man of the Match: Malcom (Zenit)

It’s been a month, since Dynamo eliminated Zenit from Russian Cup beating RPL leaders in St. Petersburg, but in the league the Blue-White Sky Blue had streak of seven home wins against the opponents. Malcom was the leading man in this match, he scored the first goal from the penalty, he earned himself, and his second shot was a classic circling ball sent to the far corner. This made the Brazilian the top scorer of the season with 18 goals, he ran away on two-goal gap from Quincy Promes. Daniil Fomin found his shot, after the long-distance goal against Pari NN late week he scored outside the penalty area again to keep the dream for points alive. Malcom dispelled it assisting Andrey Mostovoy for third goal.

Zenit continue being top with 58 points, while Dynamo go fifth on 39 points.
