Scotland led through John McGinn before Artem Dzyuba grabbed the equaliser.

Stephen O'Donnell's second-half own goal sealed the three points for Russia.

It comes as five others were arrested after last weekend's Old Firm clash at Ibrox.

The men, 47, 30, 25, 30 and 21, were all charged with alleged breach of the peace. 

Officers also cracked down on searches as fans headed into the stadium with tougher, more thorough searches.

Meanwhile there were no arrests after Scotland's win over Georgia in their rugby World Cup tune-up game at Murrayfield.
