Two late goals from Russian midfielder Aleksei Andreyevich Miranchuk and a 6th minutes strike from forward Fyodor Mikhaylovich Smolov was enough to see the Yuri Pavlovich Semin side through, Iranian striker Sardar Azmoun had given Zenith two goals lead.
Idowu who was omitted in the Super Eagles squad currently competing in the African Cup of Nations in Egypt, will hope to get more playing time under his belt in the coming season in Russia.
