Stuttgart adds to Dinamo's woes

29 August 2012-PA Sport

Dinamo Moscow's miserable start to the season continued as it was dumped out of the UEFA Europa League after a 3-1 aggregate defeat to Stuttgart in its play-off second leg.

The German side ran out a 2-0 winner in last week's first leg and a 1-1 draw in the return was not enough for the Russian side to avoid an early exit from the competition.

Vedad Ibisevic bagged both goals in Stuttgart's first-leg triumph and put the tie to bed as a contest in the return leg with the opening goal after 64 minutes in the Russian capital.

Aleksandr Kokorin hit a 78th-minute consolation for Dinamo, whose attention must now turn to arresting its dismal domestic form which has left it bottom of the Premier League after managing just one win in six matches at the start of the season.

Victory for Stuttgart puts it into the draw for the Europa League group stage, which gets under way with the first round of matches on 20 September.
