Hamburg - CSKA Moscow booked their place in the knockout stages of the UEFA Cup Thursday with a 2-1 victory over Polish side Lech Poznan in a Group H encounter. Alan Dzagoev latched on to a pass from Vagner Love to open the scoring for the Russians and Yuri Zhirkov doubled the home side's lead at the Luzhniki Stadium with a left-footed volley just before the break. Semir Pilic pulled on back for Poznan from a free-kick after 66 minutes. The victory was CSKA's third win in succession in the group and moves CSKA on to nine points from three matches, five clear of Nancy and eight ahead of Poznan. Deportivo La Coruna and Feyenoord Rotterdam, who are both still without a point, meet later Thursday. In Group F, Zilina and Slavia Prague got their first points of the campaign as the two sides played out a scoreless draw.
