He was begging for more than 40 minutes, but the 2019-20 Champions League saw his first goal at 19:36 in the afternoon (Spanish time).
Sardar Azmoun was the goalscorer. The Iranian, known in his country as the local Messi, beat the Zenit goalkeeper behind a large wall with the Russian international Dzyuba. The big forward returned the pass to assist his partner in the 0-1 game at 41 minutes.
Azmoun stood alone against Lopes, who went to the ground to try to block the ball. However, the tip was more agile and his shot ended up in the back of the net.
