Ahmed Musa scores brace in CSKA Moscow's comeback win vs. Krasnodar

Ahmed Musa delivered an outstanding performance as his two goals helped CSKA Moscow fight back to secure a 2-1 win over Krasnodar on Sunday.

Following his brace of assists against Amkar Perm on Wednesday, the Super Eagles attacker continued in his rich vein of form as Viktor Goncharenko's men secured their second successive win.

After a goalless affair in the first half, Yury Gazinskiy's 53rd-minute goal put the visitors ahead but Musa's efforts in the 73rd and 85th minute turned the tide around for the Red-Blues who clinched their 15th league of the season.
