Zenit keeper Vyacheslav Malafeev started the game on the bench but had to come out after Vladimir Gabulov was sent off for a foul in the area.

Malafeev put up a good show as he did not let Igor Mitreski score from the penalty spot when the latter attempted to tie the game for Macedonia.

"That was probably the first time in my career that I had to come out on the field when your opponent was about to shoot from the penalty spot," said Vyacheslav Malafeev to Sport Express.

"Yet I am too experienced to get nervous."

"I knew what I had to do and I did it: the moment when I parried the penalty attempt proved the crucial in the game as my teammates reestablished control of the game."

"We did not deserve to lose points in this game if you think logically."

"But I doubt that it is logic that rules in football."
