Red-hot Super Eagles attacker, Ahmed Musa was in sensational form for CSKA Moscow in their 2-1 win over Anzhi Makhachkala in the final game of the Russian Premier League season on Sunday afternoon, scoring one and laying on another in the victory.
The Leicester City loanee has been in the rudest of form since his short spell with the Muscovites, and was on song twice last time out here at the VEB-Arena.
It took him just nine minutes to open the scoring here, picking up a pass from Kirill Nababkin to waltz through the opponents defense and slot home the opener.
The 25-year old would then turn provider for his teammate, Vitinho who hit home the winner a minute past the hour mark after Anzhi had pulled level through Arsen Khubulov in the first half.
With that performance, Musa who was rated MOTM from the encounter by statistical website, whoscored with a 7.67 rating has had a hand in ten goals (seven goals, three assists) from 16 outings in all competitions for the club.
CSKA would finish second in the league standings with 58 points though, two points off Lokomotiv in the summit of the table.
