Europa League Matchday Six: Two Russian teams top groups

Krasnodar, qualified for the next phase of the Europa League as leader of Group C, winning away at Qäbälä 3-0; In Group B, Rubin Kazan had a good 2-2 draw away at Bordeaux but it was not enough; Lokomotiv Moskva topped Group H with a 3-0 away win in Albania at Skënderbeu.

Qäbälä 0 Krasnodar 3

                R. Sigurdsson 26, Pereyra 41; Wanderson 76

58% ball possession to the Russian visitors, 17 shots against 11 for the home side and one on the woodwork. Dominance from Krasnodar, leader of Group C

 Bordeaux 2 Rubin 2

Laborde 58 Kanunnikov 31

Rolán 63     Ustinov 76

Ball possession was almost equal, 51-49 in favor of the home soccer team, while Bordeaux had more shots (21 to 12), 9 on against 4, each team had 3 shots blocked. Runin's 5 corners to 3 showed a tactical awareness but...Rubin Kazan bows out of Europe this season.

 Skënderbeu 0 Lokomotiv Moskva 3

                         Tarasov 18, Niasse 89, Samedov 90

Skënderbeu's first season at this stage of European competitions was no disaster. Three points gained (victory against Portugal's Sporting CP) and a lot of respect and friends along the way. Skënderbeu enjoyed 58% ball possession, but Lokomotiv had more shots, 11 against 8, 7 on against 2 and 4 off against 5
