FT Krasnodar 1-0 Fenerbahce - The home team with a deserved victory but will be disappointed going to Turkey with only a 1 goal lead.

77' - Fenerbahce a lot more in the game now as they push for an equaliser but Krasnodar so far defending well while also counter attacking.

Not sure Krasnodar will be able maintain this style for the full 90 minutes after 3 months off.
