Ruslan Mingazov bagged a brace as Kitchee moved up to just 2 points behind Lee Man after an emphatic 3-0 win at Sham Shui Po Sports Ground on Sunday (March 17).
Kitchee enjoyed the majority of possession and grabbed the lead in the 28th minute following a fine passing move with Mikael teeing up Mingazov for an easy open goal finish. Full back Law Tsz Chun was forced off with a head injury in a collision minutes before half time.
Mingazov extended the advantage 3 minutes into the second half as Charlie Scott set up the Turkmen to bag his second goal of the game. Mikael sealed the rout in the 59th minute from the spot to a hugely impressive win.
