Nigerian winger, Ahmed Musa’s CSKA Moscow has been knocked out of the European Champions League despite the pacy forward’s strike against Viktoria Plzen on Tuesday.
This win therefore over CSKA qualified Plzen for the Europa League competition as Bayern Munich and Manchester City had already earned progression to the knockout stages of Europe’s premier club competition, with the Europa League spot the only issue to be decided in the final round of Group D matches.
Musa put his Russian side in front with a header in the 65th minute.
Musa then wasted the best chance of the half for CSKA after 31 minutes, producing a tame effort when through on goal that was easily saved by Matus Kozacik with his feet.
Tecl headed over from a whipped Horvath delivery four minutes later, before Musa showed the Czech how it was done.
Plzen were eventually rewarded when Kolar headed home unmarked from Horvath’s cross with 14 minutes remaining.
Wagner then converted Frantisek Rajtoral’s delivery in the dying stages of the game to ensure Vrba’s reign ended on a notable high.
