Victory against Andorra was in vain as Russia's UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying hopes ended.

Already unable to catch Denmark in Group 2, Russia were hoping to be one of the four best runners-up. But today's result could not affect that and in the end they were to fall short. In the match itself two Denis Davydov goals were the highlight.
