FK Aktobe made light work of Altay VKO in a commanding 4-2 away victory in the Premier League. Three goals inside the opening 55 minutes put the visitors firmly in control, and despite a late rally from the hosts, the points were never in doubt.
Ivan Ordets opened the scoring from an Agustín Pastoriza Pibe corner on 21 minutes, and Daniel Sosah doubled the lead with a fine individual effort nine minutes later. Temirlan Erlanov made it three shortly after the hour mark, again from a Pastoriza Pibe delivery. Dmitri Podstrelov pulled one back for Altay with 17 minutes to go, but Pablo Alvarez quickly restored the three-goal cushion. A stoppage-time own goal added a degree of respectability for the home side.
The game was a physical affair, with referee showing eight yellow cards, but FK Aktobe's composure and clinical finishing told the story. Four different scorers shared the goals, while Agustín Pastoriza Pibe's two assists underlined his creative influence from midfield. Altay, to their credit, never stopped pressing, but the damage had been done in a dominant first hour from the visitors.
