Spartak Moscow defeated bitter rivals Locomotiv Moscow 2-0 to book a place in the next edition of the UEFA Champions League.

Nigerian forward Emmanuel Emenike as a result of his sending off in the 43rd round of matches was not suited for the red and white.

According to Sport Express Russia, before the kick-off of Sunday's game against the Railway Men, during the pre-match build up, Emenike's teammates warmed up in shirts with the slogan : "In our veins - the blood of Spartacus. And you?". The picture on the player's T-Shirts was that of Emmanuel Emenike.

Despite arriving Russia five months after the start of the Premier League, Emenike finished the season as the top scorer for Spartak Moscow with 13 goals in 22 games
