(Reuters) - Rostov made it five games in all competitions without a win for Zenit St Petersburg on Friday when the Russian champions slumped to a 2-0 home defeat.

It was hardly the performance Italian coach Luciano Spalletti wanted as his Zenit side suffered their first home league defeat of the season ahead of the midweek Champions League tie with Atletico Madrid.
