The 2013 United Tournament was an exhibition football club tournament that took place in Ukraine and Russia on 27 June – 7 July 2013. Four teams participated in it: Shakhtar Donetsk and Dynamo Kyiv from Ukraine; Zenit St. Petersburg and Spartak Moscow from Russia. On 7 July 2013, Dynamo Kyiv beat Spartak Moscow 2–1 and won this tournament.[1][2]

Each team played four matches: both a home and away fixture against the two teams from the opposing country.[3] The teams didn't play against their domestic rivals. Zenit St. Petersburg played their home matches in Kyiv, as their Petrovsky Stadium was under renovation works.[4] The tiebreakers were: head-to-head results over the two legs, the aggregate goal difference. In total, 8 substitutions were allowed, but the additional five must take place at half time.[5]
