The meeting of the 11th round of the Russian Premier League World, which took place at the «VTB Arena», ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of the guests
This time, Marcel Licka decided to play with the full-backs, starting Eli Dasu and Dmitry Skopintsev from the first minute. The attack line was familiar with Bitello and Jorge Carrascal in the center, and below them was Diego Laxalt.. Also in the squad was Luis Chávez, who missed more than a month due to injury.
The blue-whites started the match well, actively pressing their opponents on their half of the field. In one moment, Konstantin Tyukavin stole the ball from Igor Diveev and passed it to Nicolas Ngamalho, whose shot was blocked by a defender. The Army team responded with a dangerous attack when Ivan Oblyakov missed the target from a killer position after a cross from the left flank.
Oblyakov twice used subtle passes to put his teammates one-on-one with Andrey Lunyov, who first outmaneuvered Abbosbek Fayzullayev in close combat, and then deflected a shot by Saúl Guarirapa in a jump. However, in the 17th minute, the ball still ended up in the net after a strike by Fayzullaev from outside the penalty area
The guests were faster and more accurate in their passes, constantly finding empty zones on our half of the field. Lunev continued to work tirelessly in the goal, stopping two dangerous shots from Fayzullayev and Guarirapa, while Oblyakov sent a ball from the penalty line next to the post.
Dynamo had two good chances for Bitello, but his first shot from the semicircle missed Igor Akinfeev's left corner, and his second shot from a closer distance was blocked by a defender. The end of the game saw a noticeable advantage for the blue-whites, but the teams still went into halftime with a minimal advantage for CSKA.
The second half began with substitutions: Dmitry Skopintsev and Artur were replaced by Nicolás Marichal and Daniil Fomin,, with Roberto Fernández and Bitello moving to the left flank. And Dynamo quickly equalized thanks to a set piece. Bitello crossed from a free kick, Guarirapa adjusted the ball to the far post, where Carrascal hammered it into the near top corner!

Akinfeev rescued his team twice after shots by Fabián Balbuena and Tyukavin.| ---| On the 64th minute, Lichke had to make a forced substitution — Kutitsky took over for Dasa who limped on the right flank of defense.
| The match was heading towards a draw, but the visitors' substitution played out in the end. Tamerlan Musaev wasted his first chance when the ball slid off Kutitsky's leg and went to a corner kick. And in the 89th minute, Sasha Zdelar made a penetrating pass down the middle, and Musaev converted a one-on-one opportunity.
