Spartak Moscow hosts Ural from Yekaterinburg in the 18th week of the Russian Premier League (RPL). The match ended with a score of 2:2.
In the 15th minute of the meeting, “Spartak” lost the central defender Nikita Chernov due to injury. He was replaced by Pavel Maslov, who missed the entire last season.
10 minutes after the substitution, Spartak took their own penalty. Newcomer Alexis Duarte in red and white fouled Alexei Kashtanov a few meters from the door. Penalty kick converted by Rai Vlut. Muscovites managed to regroup just before the break. Ilya Pomazun sent the ball into the nets with Ruslan Litvinov’s long shot during the long attack of the red and whites already in the extra time.
In the middle of the second half, the guest team took the lead again. This time team captain Eric Bikfalvi prevailed. But Ruslan Litvinov got back to work. The midfielder took a heel pass from Martins and hit the left corner on target. At the end of the match, referee Vitaly Meshkov canceled Sobolev’s goal against Ural’s empty nets due to a foul against the Yekaterinburg goalkeeper, while the red-white player did not participate in the violation.
