Don't you just love it when minnows of the Champions League get results against the comepetition's traditional heavyweights? Well today in Kazan, Russian Premier League champions Rubin Kazan managed to hold Inter Milan to a 1-1 draw.
An 11th minute goal from Kazan forward Alejandro Dominguez put the Russian club ahead:
Inter's Dejan Stankovic equalized 16 minutes later:
This is Inter's second consecutive draw in the competition. They previously battled Barcelona to a goalless draw at the Camp Nou two weeks ago.
Kazan frustrated the Italian side for much of the night. Milan should also feel relieved that they did not lose three points completely, as they finished the game with ten men after a Mario Balotelli red card.
Results like this are few and far between. But it is always refreshing to see one of the "Big Boys" have to fight their hearts out for a single point.
