The match in Nizhny Novgorod opened the program of the 12th round of the RPL on Saturday. In the last six rounds, both teams only managed to get one victory, but the Nizhny Novgorod team scored 5 points, while their opponents scored four.
Recently, both teams frankly did not please their fans with their brilliant play and victories. In Nizhny Novgorod they decided to change the coach and Viktor Gancharenko, who had previously worked in more than one RPL club, took over as coach.
In the first half there was a tough battle on the field, but the teams did not please the crowd with any goals scored. The scoring did not open until the 75th minute, when a precise shot by Paris NN midfielder Valery Tsarukyan reached the goal.
But the locals failed to preserve the victory. In injury time, Rostov were awarded a penalty, which Maxim Osipenko converted.
After 12 rounds, Paris NN has 12 points and the team is in 10th place in the RPL table; Rostov has 13 points and is currently in eighth place.
