A Sergei Kornilenko brace gave Russian Premier League strugglers Krylya Sovetov a 2-1 comeback win over nine-man Amkar Perm on Saturday.

Kornilenko hit a penalty to cancel out Georgi Peev's opener on the stroke of half time. The Belarusian poked home a second just three minutes later to seal the win.

A minute later, Amkar's Sergey Volkov earned a second booking after remonstrating with the referee over a supposed offside.

Kornilenko on 76 minutes missed a hat-trick chance from the penalty spot, but Montenegrin midfielder Mitar Novakovic received a second yellow for the challenge that led to it.

Krylya go to 40 points, overtaking FC Volga and going eight points clear of FC Tom Tomsk in the automatic relegation zone.

Amkar on 47 points stay second in the relegation group, five behind FC Krasnodar.

Earlier Saturday, FC Tomsk scored their biggest win of the season with a 3-0 triumph over Terek Grozny.
