Russia have played out a 1-1 draw against Turkey at the VEB Arena in Moscow in their final friendly match before next week's World Cup on home soil.
The tournament hosts edged in front courtesy of Aleksandr Samedov's strike 35 minutes in, only for half-time substitute Yunus Malli to level things up on the hour mark.
Russia could not regain their lead, making it seven matches without a win heading into their World Cup opener against Saudi Arabia, while Turkey are now unbeaten in five - each of those coming in friendlies.
Rumoured Arsenal target Caglar Soyuncu ghosted in at the back post early on but could not quite direct an awkward headed chance on Igor Akinfeev's target.
Turkey had been on top at that point and soon tightened their grip on proceedings, without being able to damage the home side.
Sbornaya soon grew into the match, with Yuri Zhirkov swinging in a dangerous free kick from deep that was marginally out of Aleksandr Golovin's reach at the back post.
Neither side could muster a serious effort on target prior to the breakthrough moment, which arrived 10 minutes before the interval.
Samedov made the most of his big opening when it arrived, latching on to Alan Dzagoev's through-ball and delicately dinking the ball over Serkan Kirintili from a tight angle.
Russia looked the better side in the build-up to half time, but Turkey created the next clear-cut opening for Kenan Karaman to head straight at Akinfeev.
Turkey, who are due to face Russia in a couple of competitive matches later this year in the UEFA Nations League, made a few changes at the break in an attempt to freshen things up, including the introduction of Malli.
The score was levelled up on the hour mark thanks to some poor Russian defending, with Malli getting on the end of Kirintili's punt upfield and guiding the ball out of Akinfeev's reach from the edge of the area.
Russia, whose last win came back in October, almost regained their lead soon after when Golovin's effort deflected past Kirintili's post for a corner.
Golovin would have an even better chance 15 minutes from time, taking down a ball over the top and cutting inside his man before bending it wide.
Turkey themselves had an opportunity to win the match, though, as Malli was picked out in a good position but could not keep his shot on target.
The flow of the game was not helped in the second half by the flurry of subs, and that Malli shot would prove to be the last serious chance of the contest.
