Bayer Leverkusen have kept out a dominant Zenit St Petersburg during a goalless first half in tonight's Champions League Group C encounter in Russia.
Following a lively opening to the match, the hosts almost made the breakthrough on 12 minutes when Hulk's free kick evaded everyone before coming back off the post.
The Russians came close again moments later, but Aleksandr Kerzhakov was denied by Bernd Leno after being sent through on goal by Danny's clever flick.
Kerzhakov was in the thick of the action again midway through the half when he fired inches wide of the post, while a rare opening for the visitors later on saw Stefan Kiessling's fierce drive kept out by Yuri Lodygin.
