FC Rubin Kazan are through to the last 32 after – for the second time in as many Group H meetings – a 16th-minute goal earned victory against Neftçi PFK.

Vladimir Dyadyun did the damage this time around, replacing Alan Kasaev on the scoresheet, but it was not until later in the evening that Rubin's qualification was confirmed. The Russian club needed FK Partizan to be denied a win against FC Internazionale Milano, and with Inter clinching a 3-1 success, they and Rubin could celebrate sewing up the top two spots in the section.
