Goals from two Dynamo Moscow loan players helped FC Tom Tomsk heave themselves off the bottom of the Russian Premier League table on Friday, with a 2-0 away win at relegation rivals Spartak Nalchik.

The Siberians broke a 57-year-old top-tier record last year of failing to score in 12 consecutive games, but now go to four matches unbeaten since the winter break.

Alan Gatagov opened the scoring on 16 minutes with an overhead volley from close range on Anton Khazov's knockdown.

Romanian midfielder Adrian Ropotan doubled the lead ten minutes into the second half with a low strike from distance as the Nalchik defense backed off.

Tomsk leapfrog Nalchik to go to 29 points from 37 games, leaving the Caucasus-based side rock bottom on 27 points. Seven games remain.

On Saturday, FC Volga, five points ahead of Tomsk, host Rostov, while Krylya Sovetov face Krasnodar. Terek Grozny travel to Amkar Perm on Sunday.

At the top of the table, leaders Zenit St. Petersburg travel to Spartak Moscow while second-placed CSKA Moscow have a trip to Dan Petrescu's FC Kuban.

On Sunday, Rubin Kazan host Anzhi and third-placed Lokomotiv Moscow plays fifth-placed Dynamo.
