FC Rubin Kazan will head into their UEFA Europa League double-header against Neftçi PFK with high hopes of advancing after a commanding performance against FK Partizan.
Goals either side of half-time from Gökdeniz Karadeniz and Aleksandr Ryazantsev did the damage at the Centralniy Stadion as Kurban Berdyev's team dictated play from start to finish. The result leaves them level on four points with FC Internazionale Milano at the Group H summit, three ahead of Neftçi and Partizan.
