The only goal of the match was scored by Andrei Mostovoy from a penalty kick in the 29th minute.

This defeat did not prevent Dynamo from reaching the next round, thanks to its great 3-1 victory over Zenit in the first leg, clinching qualification thanks to its superiority in the aggregate of the two matches (3-2).

Thus, Dynamo continues its journey in the Russian Premier League club track in the Russian Cup competition, while Zenit moves to compete in the “Regional Track” (the track designated for clubs from lower leagues) after leaving the Premier League track.

In the semi-finals of the Premier League, Dynamo will face Spartak Moscow, which in turn qualified after eliminating Lokomotiv Moscow.

For its part, Zenit will meet Baltika Kaliningrad in the “repeat” quarter-finals in the “Regional Track”.

For the fourth season in a row, the Russian Cup included the “RPL Path” (Russian Premier League teams) and the “Regional Path” (Regional Path) which includes lower-tier clubs, with teams that exited the “RPL Path” also reaching the qualifying stage in the Regional Path.

The winners of the finals of both tracks will meet in the final match, which is described as the “Super Final,” to determine the champion of the Russian Cup.
