    • 88' Kryvets with another effort but that is blocked before getting to the goal.
    • 86' Zenit really should have wrapped up the game - Danny on the counter attack is greedy and tries a shot when he had two men to his right he could have just laid it off too.
    • 83' Free for BATE just ouside the D in a central position. Kryvets manages to get it over the wall but it dips just over the bar.
    • 78' Ultimate sign that Zenit are just going to try and hang on - they have brought on a defender Hubocan for star man Andrei Arshavin.

    • 34' After a dull period Zenit now have the lead! A very simple goal on the counter attack - Zyryanov moved forward with purpose - he slipped the ball into Pavel Pogrebnyak and he took one touch before finishing well. The large number of away fans go wild.
