Ahmed Musa's CSKA Moscow Close To Winning Russian Title

Ahmed Musa's new striking role is paying off big time. Today, May 12, the Nigeria international netted his 14th goal in all competitions after scoring against Victor Obinna's Lokomotiv Moscow.

Musa was on target after 26 minutes in the 4 - 1 victory over the Railway Men, his 11th goal in the Russian Premier League.

CSKA Moscow will play Kuban' Krasnodar in the next round of matches on Saturday, May 18.

No matter the outcome of the tie against Kuban, the capital team will be crowned champions if closest challengers Zenit St Petersburg fail to win against Volga.

Ahmed Musa is the fourth highest goalscorer in the championship, just 2 goals behind Wanderson of Krasnodar.
