He's got a crack at the rebound all alone in front of Gennadiy Yatchenko... how did he miss that?! Unbelievable.

Min.61, the counterattack was led by Nicolas Denissen. He tries to lob the keeper who has left his area however the ball goes just wide of the post. Min.65, Saku Jaakkola is unable to get past Kondrat Khudyakov who steals the ball with a great challenge.Saku Jaakkola must have been watching too much boring football lately, he's complaining to the ref about a perfectly legal tackle.

Min.84, Renat Turgenev got on the on the end of that poor clearance by the defence and calmly chested the ball down and struck a beautiful half volley towards the goal.
