Russian - Nigerian defender Brian Idowu has stated that Amker Perm deserved their 2 - 0 win against Rubin Kazan in the Premier League on Sunday.

For the second straight game , the 23 - year - old started and completed a league match , helping Amkar Perm keep a clean sheet in the process.

“In moments we had an advantage, and Rubin had only one dangerous moment when Roman Gerus rescued after Gökdeniz Karadeniz shot the ball, ” Brian Idowu told Ria Novosti .

“After a red card to Kazan we realized that there is nothing to lose.  We calmed down a bit.

 “And Rubin began to play loose, trying to take advantage of free spaces.  But in the end it turned out that we earned a penalty and put an end to the game. ”

Nigeria international Fegor Ogude and new signing Izunna Uzochukwu put up an impressive performance against Rubin Kazan.
