Russia take a throw-in and it comes to Andrei Arshavin, who turns and shoots low into the corner, his effort taking a deflection of Andre Ooijer before going through Edwin van der Sar’s legs. Pathetic defending by Holland but Arshavin has fully deserved a goal for another dazzling performance tonight.
