Russia media say this is one of the weakest Russia teams in history
Day 6: Colombia vs Japan, Poland vs Senegal and Russia vs Egypt
- Thread starter K2K
- Start date
He is 27, practically ready to retire.
3-0 all over.
What's happened to Egypt?
Wait what's going on here?!
3 nil!
3 nil!
What a fecking goal Dzyuba! All over now if it wasnt before. Russia looking very good. Egypt have been awful
Wow 3-0
I usually want the hosts to do well cause it's good for the tournament but.. Russia.. c'mon.
Where did you get that first game since Feb? He was fit since May, only the brazilian doctor ruled him out until the start of the preparation to not risk injuring himself in meaningless games for PSG. He played 2 friendlies for Brazil before the WC.
Be fair, he hasn't played since the Champions League final. I bet the others have played a lot of league games since in top divisions.
lol
Russia are going to win the world cup aren't they?
I think he's great and can understand why people want to see him do well after the year he's had, but yeah, the love-in's gotten a bit much at times. Can tell the presents are fairly limited in who they're knowledgeable about when it comes to smaller teams.
8 goals in 2 games for Russia
Are we going to lose 5-0 as Saudi ?
No Ballon D’or for Mo
Egypt's defence is comical.
No they won't win the world cup.
8-0 so far, but not exactly great opposition. If they do well against Uruguay I might start to take them seriously.
That defending though I'm speechless
I'm speechlessto think Dzyuba was a sub to start off with in the first game, changed their whole dynamic.
Egypt putting a shout in for wooden spoon.
That was Bergkamp-esque
Only Saudi Arabia might be worse.
Looks like we may need the germans to beat them 7-1
Russia is going to do South Korea 2002 hopefully.
What's wrong with Russia? Why shouldn't they do well as the hosts? They are playing with pride and passion. Let them have their moment.
Mostanbul incoming?
He was hiding behind a bin and did this stupid dance.
Kind of ended with The Pyramids. That was their high pointWhat's happened to Egypt?
2-0 Cheryshev
That was a great goal from the big man.
That's Egypt done and dusted
Not sure why. Dzyuba is decent and scores goals in the Europa league all the time. Golovin is good, cheryshev is good, mario Fernandes is good.... on paper they arent bad at all.
It's getting comical at the moment. I'm not even sad. Just laughing.
Rubbish players and rubbish coach.
What a beautiful moment
Russia have been very impressive so far. With the results in other groups going their way, they could potentially face Croatia in quarters and then who knows what can happen if they continue playing like that.
