Brian Idowu sent off as Khimki's winless run continues

Brian Idowu was sent off in Khimki's 2-1 defeat to Akhmat Grozny in Saturday's Russian Premier League encounter.

The hosts opened the scoring at the Arena Khimki through Egor Danilkin's effort in the 21st minute but they gave up their lead after conceding two quick-fire goals within 60 seconds.

Vladimir Iljin drew Akmat Grozny level in the 72nd minute and Artiom Timofeev scored the match-winning goal a few moments later to stretch Khimki’s winless streak to four games.
