In mid-August, Viktor Claesson returned to the football field after more than a year of injury hell.

It had been 486 days after the knee injury.

Despite a long absence, he has shown good form in recent weeks.

When Krasnodar received Rubin Kazan this afternoon, Claesson started on the bench.

At the beginning of the second half he was replaced.

Goals by Olsson and Berg

However, it was not a whole half for him.

The 28-year-old is replaced in the 83rd minute.

He took care of the groin when he limped off, writes Aftonbladet.

Krasnodar won the match 3-1.

Kristoffer Olsson and Marcus Berg each scored a goal.
