MOSCOW, April 13 (RIA Novosti) - CSKA Moscow...

The former Red Army club had failed to win in their last two league games, losing 1-0 at home to Tom Tomsk and drawing 0-0 with Amkar in the Urals. With the side also having crashed out of the UEFA Cup to Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk, new Brazilian coach Zico's position was looking increasingly shaky as criticism mounted of his tactics.

Dzagoyev, the teenage wunderkind from Beslan who lit up the Russian championship last season, had also struggled to find the kind of form that reportedly made him a target for Chelsea.

However, on Sunday, he was the Dzagoyev of old, first directing a perfectly weighted free-kick into the top corner of the Lokomotiv net in the 35th minute to give CSKA the lead and then heading home a Milos Krasic cross in the second half to make it 3-0. The teenager forward's goals came either side of a Yury Zhirkov strike.
