Spartak Moskva complicated things at home after getting a nice 1-1 draw away in Switzerland in the first leg and after opening the scoring at home in the first minute. The result was a 4-2 home lesson in tactical football, by half-time the match being beyond the home side. Rubin and Kuban compensated with wins.
