Live Commentary
Time:90'- Rubin Kazan
- Dynamo Kyiv
90+2' The full-time whistle goes at the Centralniy Stadium and it has finished goalless between Rubin Kazan and Dynamo Kiev, with the big winners being Barcelona and Internazionale in Group F as a result of this stalemate! Thanks for joining us.- 90+1' Rubin are continuing to keep possession in the Kiev half, but the visitors look to have kept a clean sheet and avoided elimination.
- 90' Two minutes will be added at the end of this second half with neither side taking too many risks late on.
- 89' Ansaldi causes more havoc down the left with a precise run but his cross is again poor and Kiev can clear.
- 88' Yussuf kicks up an almighty fuss after he is spoken to sternly by the referee for jostling in the box with Dominguez.
87' Ninkovic comes off as Kiev look to freshen up their midfield with Husyev coming on in his place.- 86' Semak threads the ball through to Bukharov, but he loses out to Magrao once more.
- 85' Rubin build from the back once more through Ansaldi and Cesar Navas, before Dominguez gives the ball away sloppily.
- 84' Rubin are pressing hard but are not managing to create any clear-cut chances with their possession.
- 83' Bukharov challenges for an aerial ball with Yussuf before Milevskiy gets another low shot away from range to no avail.
- 82' Ninkovic battles with Noboa in midfield as the play continues to be fragmented.
- 81' Eremenko whips in an outswinging corner from the left, but it is poor and is cleared away by Semak at the near post.

- 77' Ninkovic challenges with Noboa in midfield before Dominguez lashes a low shot straight at Shovkovskyy.
- 76' Shevchenko wins his side a corner with a powerful run down the left but it is wasted by Milevskiy.
- 75' Karadeniz is taken off with Bystrov coming on to make his debut in the midfielder's place.
- 74' Both sides, to their credit, are showing a decent degree of urgency, but neither is creating anything in the final third.
- 73' Bukharov swivels and unleashes a powerful, if wild shot which does not test Shovkovskyy.
- 71' Shevchenko continues to harry and hussle in the Rubin half, but he is not showing any ability to make an impact himself in the final third.
- 70' Dominguez has been very subdued in the second half, and the game is by far the poorer for it.
- 69' Shevchenko makes a hash of another good position as he fires a low shot wide of Ryzhikov's near post.
- 68' Kaleshin, the substitute, is penalised for a robust challenge on Vukojevi and rightly so.
- 67' Yarmolenko drives a hugely ambitious shot well wide of the near post, and that is now three efforts from the forward which have not hit the target.
- 66' Ninkovic and Semak are continuing their battle in midfield, as the referee takes exception to another mistimed challenge.
- 65' Ansaldi produces another attacking run down the left for Rubin until he is challenged by Mykhalyk.
- 63' Magrao fires a low and hopeful shot at Ryzhikov, but the Rubin keeper saves well down to his right.
- 62' The conditions are really not at all conducive to quality football and both sides are unable to create any clear-cut chances so far in this second half.
61' Noboa is booked for hauling down Mykhalyk and that was a cynical challenge!- 59' Shovkovskyy tips the ball over the bar from Bukharov's hopeful long shot which dips viciously at the last second.
- 57' Semak brings the ball forward for Rubin as Ninkovic tracks his run, but the shot is wild under pressure.
- 56' Ryzhikov takes his time over a goal kick as his side re-group following a good spell of Kiev pressure.
- 55' Dominguez is booked for a clumsy tackle on Magrao as the play gets increasingly scrappy with the conditions very poor.
- 53' Kaleshin replaces the injury-stricken Sharonov, as the sleet gets ever heavier.
- 51' The delay is not something welcomed by any of the players who stand shivering while the pair receive treatment.
- 49' Both players get gingerly to their feet and are helped away by their respective physios.
- 48' Sharonov looks to have taken a hefty blow to his thigh as he goes down clutching his leg after a challenge with Ninkovic.
- 47' Kiev start the brighter and Rubin are kept on the back foot from the outset.
46' The second half is underway at the Centralniy Stadium with Kiev kicking us off in driving sleet.- 45+1' The half-time whistle goes at the Centralniy Stadium and it is goalless between Rubin Kazan and Dynamo Kiev, despite Shovkovskyy's stunning save!
- 45' Just one minute will be added at the end of this first half.
45' What a save! That was Gordon Banks-esque from Shovkovskyy! Dominguez produces a stunning acrobatic over-head kick which he directs low into the bottom corner, and the keeper flicks it wide superbly!- 44' Mykhalyk and Ninkovic exchange slick passes in the Rubin half, but again a good position is wasted.
- 43' Another Dominguez run looks promising but he is crowded out by a number of Kiev players on the edge of the box.
- 42' Ansaldi and Noboa combine effectively down the left for Rubin, with Magrao making a good intervention.
- 41' Bukharov skips past Yussuf, and he squares a pass back for Dominguez which his partner fails to get on the end of.
- 40' Shovkovskyy hammers the ball upfield under pressure from Karadeniz, and that was a good clearance in the circumstances.
- 39' Dominguez takes the free kick, but just like Shevchenko at the other end, he wastes it as this match continues to lack quality.
- 38' Shevchenko shows good resolve in charging back to tackle Bukharov on the edge of the Kiev box, but is booked as he takes the man and the ball!
- 37' Shevchenko runs up and blasts the free kick miles over the crossbar, and that was very poor from the striker!
- 36' Ninkovic is beginning to exert his presence in midfield, and he wins a free-kick for Kiev with Noboa outwitted on this occasion.
- 35' Milevskiy turns Sharonov but his shot is wide under pressure from the defender.
- 34' Dominguez definitely looks the man capable of injecting some class into this rather turgid first half.
- 33' Salukvadze, who is bizarrely wearing the number nine shirt, feeds Dominguez, but he drags his shot wide of the far post.
- 32' Dominguez dances through two Kiev challenges but Shovkovskyy has his shot covered at his near post - good effort.
- 31' Sharonov and Yarmolenko collide as both challenge for a high ball and the pair are okay as they get to their feet gingerly.
- 30' Eremenko barges Noboa off the ball, and that was blatant and perhaps befitting of a yellow card in addition to the free kick.
- 29' Shevchenko takes the ball down for Kiev in the final third, but he cannot find the crucial pass to play in Milevskiy.
- 28' Semak wins the ball in midfield for the hosts, and Vukojevi has been virtually anonymous for Kiev thus far.
- 27' Karadeniz believes he has won a corner but Yussuf shepherds the ball out of play well and is awarded a goal kick.
- 26' Magrao wins another towering header at the back for Kiev and Bukharov is losing every aerial ball.
- 25' Noboa is at the forefront of everything for Rubin in midfield and Ninkovic and co need to get tighter to him.
- 24' Shevchenko loses the ball sloppily in the final third for Kiev as another attack breaks down.
- 23' Dominguez has looked very bright for the hosts early on, and the midfielder is attracting a lot of interest.
- 22' Cesar Nevas finds Noboa with a neat ball through midfield, but another attack peters out for the hosts.
- 21' Milevskiy wins the ball back for Kiev as Sharonov dallies at the back, and Salukvadze covers well to atone for his team-mate's mistake.
- 20' Betao clashes with Bukharov and is penalised by the referee for his infringement as the play is very stop-start.
- 19' Ansaldi wriggles his way past Ninkovic down the left for Rubin, but is crowded out and cannot get a cross in.
- 17' Mykhalyk tussles with Semak in midfield but does not manage to come away with the ball despite a firm challenge.
- 15' Karadeniz whips in a devilish delivery from the right which Dominguez meets, unmarked in the penalty area, but his header is very tame!
- 14' Milevskiy threads a ball through for Shevchenko, but the striker is not quite able to latch on to it in a dangerous area.
- 13' Eremenko loses the ball after passing it out of play under pressure from Semak, and Rubin are pressing very well.
- 12' Ninkovic bundles his way into the penalty area at pace but his final touch is very poor despite his fine run up until that point.
- 11' Noboa picks up the ball once more for Rubin and distributes it out to Dominguez, the attacking Argentina midfielder.
- 10' Semak clatters into the back of Magrao in midfield as the play continues to be very scrappy early on.
- 9' Bukharov goes down again after a tussle with Yussuf and for a second time is unsympathetically told to get to his feet by the German referee!
- 8' Ryzhikov assists in his side's patient passing by refusing to lump the ball upfield from the back and finding his full-backs at will.

- 6' Shovkovskyy hammers the ball upfield after a misplaced pass from Semak.
- 5' Shevchenko drags a low cross into the six-yard box which evades everyone and is met by Yarmolenko at the back post, but he scuffs his shot wide.
- 4' Cristian Noboa is at the centre of the mesmeric passing for the hosts, before Cristian Ansaldi lumps the ball out for a goal kick.
- 3' Kiev are dropping very deep and allowing the hosts to pass the ball about at the back.
- 2' The home crowd are buoyant as their side stroke the ball around at the back in patient fashion.
1' The first half is underway and there will be no doubt that the players will run their socks off this evening - it is extremely cold!- - Heavy sleet greets the players as they emerge at a very blustery Centralniy Stadium, with the temperature just above zero.
- - The crux of the matter in Group F is this: Inter would reach the knockout stage with a victory in Barcelona. Dynamo would be eliminated with a defeat against Rubin Kazan.
- - Dynamo have won five of their seven games against Russian clubs.
- - Dynamo have won only one of their last 13 Champions League away games, losing nine and failing to score in nine.
