Rostov Settle on a Draw

Roman Adamov’s third-minute goal was not enough for FC Rostov, who played out a 1-1 home draw with Chechen side Terek Grozny on Friday.

Adamov rose above Terek goalkeeper Soslan Dzhanaev to head in the opener from Estonian full-back Dmitry Kruglov’s deep cross, before Blagoy Georgiev leveled the scores in the 39th minute with a low strike into the corner of Stipe Pletikosa’s goal from 20 yards.

Zaur Sadaev had a chance to put Terek ahead in the 55th minute, but his flick over the onrushing Pletikosa bounced wide of the post.

The result ensures Terek remain 11th and Rostov 12th, with both teams in danger of ending up in the relegation playoffs for the 13th and 14th-placed teams. Three games remain.

Friday’s early games both finished goalless, as FC Tomsk failed to beat Amkar Perm goalkeeper Sergei Veremko, while Spartak Nalchik’s relegation was assured as they failed to beat ten-man Krylya Sovetov.

At the same time as the game in Rostov, FC Krasnodar beat FC Volga 2-1 in a result that ensures Tomsk will not be relegated this weekend.
