Russia still unable to find the net
June 25, 2018


Uruguay again enjoying major possession.

Russia make a rare foray forward but the Uruguayan defence are equal to the task.

Again, play is centred around the Russian half.

Russia make a change as Miranchuk is replaced by Smolov.

Russia threaten but cannot penetrate the defence. 

Even though there is a lot of noise in the stands the action on the field is a bit subdued.

Free-kick for Russia in the 51st minute but Samedov shoots long.


The match restarts and Suarez has been brought down just outside the box.

Cavani steps up to take the free-kick but he shoots it into the wall. 


Russia have made one change at the break as Kuziaev comes in for Gazinskii.
