Aleksandrs Cauna scored with a 40-yard screamer as CSKA Moscow cruised to a 3-0 home win against Krylya Sovetov in the Russian Premier League on Sunday.

CSKA continued an unbeaten run against Krylya that has lasted since 2001 and climbed to third, level with Spartak Moscow and Rubin Kazan on 12 points and one point behind leaders Zenit St. Petersburg.

Lithuania midfielder Cauna opened the scoring on six minutes with a spectacular distant shot into the top left corner that came from nowhere and left the visitors stunned.

Zoran Tosic doubled the lead on 41 minutes with a shot into the empty net after rounding goalkeeper Sergei Veremko after receiving an Alan Dzagoev ball over the top.

Nigerian winger Ahmed Musa added CSKA's third goal five minutes from time with a simple finish from ex-Liverpool player Mark Gonzalez's cross.

Later Sunday, Anzhi face FC Mordovia in the last game of the day.

Earlier Sunday, two goals from Yura Movsisyan were not enough to give FC Krasnodar victory away at Amkar Perm as the hosts recovered to salvage a 2-2 draw.

On Saturday, Zenit went down to their first defeat of the season, losing 2-1 at home to a spirited Rubin, before Spartak blew their chance to go top when Terek Grozny recovered from a goal down to win 2-1.

Struggling Dynamo Moscow grabbed their first points of the season with a 3-2 win at Lokomotiv Moscow and FC Rostov demolished Alania Vladikavkaz 3-1 at home as Jan Holenda scored a hat-trick.

The sixth round of games ends Monday when FC Kuban host FC Volga.
