A former Nigeria international, Victor Moses, has hit the ground running with his new Russian club, Spartak Moscow.
Moses was introduced 10 minutes into the second half of Spartak’s away league tie to Khimki on Saturday.
It was the Moscow-based club that emerged 3-2 winners in the thrilling and equally physical encounter which saw the referee dish out nine yellow cards across the two teams.
The entrance of Moses seemed to turn things around for Spartak Moscow as they not only cancelled their one-goal deficit but added two more goals to race to a 3-1 lead before another Nigeria international, Brian Idowu, scored what was only mere consolation for Khimki as the game ended 3-2 in favour of the visitors.
