Match Report
Denis Kutin's early strike gave Ufa a crucial 1-0 win at Spartak Kostroma in Round 34 of the PARI First League — a result that completely defied the run of play.
Kutin broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute, giving the visitors the only goal of the afternoon. Spartak Kostroma pushed hard in response, finishing with 56% possession, 13 shots and nine corners, but Alexander Belenov and Ufa's rearguard stood firm throughout. A string of bookings kept the temperature high — Magomed Yakuev and Denis Zhilmostnykh were cautioned for the hosts, while Ilya Rubtsov, Belenov and Alan Khabalov picked up yellows for Ufa — though neither side finished with ten men.
For Ufa, the three points mean everything: the win confirms their survival in the First League for another season. For Spartak Kostroma, it is a painful home defeat that will linger, given how much they dominated without ever finding a way past the visiting goalkeeper.
