UEFA Cup Final

Zenit 2-0 Rangers: Local lad Denisov settles it

Russia's Zenit St Petersburg won their first major European honour on Wednesday night after beating Scotland's Rangers 2-0 in a tense UEFA Cup final. Zenit, who were much the stronger side at the City of Manchester Stadium, finally got the opener in the 72nd minute thanks to Igor Denisov and then in the last minute they doubled their advantage as Rangers pushed in vain for an equaliser.
