Zenit secure first place in Europa League Group C

The 1-0 win over FC Copenhagen guaruntees Zenit first place in the group with a game to spare.
Zenit are now on 11 points, ahead of second place Slavia Prague on 7, and so the blue-white-sky blues secure a place in Europe in the spring for the ninth consecutive season. 

The draw for the Europa League knockout stages will be held on 17 December. 

The final group game will take place in the Czech Republic on 13 December. A draw will be enough to send Slavia Prague through alongside Zenit.
