Russia 2-1 win please

 

[Eco]

Since living in Russia, I haven't really kept up with the Russian Premier League.

However, I do hope they solidify a win here without any incidents.

 

[Dr Pepper]

^Same, I'd rather not see any team get booted over the lunacy of a few hooligans.

 

[BSHH]

Disqualifying Russia over some hooligan riots would be a travesty anyway. Both UEFA and FIFA have tolerated violence for a long time without issuing any substantial sanctions towards the respective countries - the German and the English market are simply to interesting to tamper with by throwing out these teams.

[Carolinas Identity*]

Go Slovakia. Hoping for no nonsense.

 

[ViD]

This is basically win or be done for Slovakia. Any other resul will force them to beat England

If Russia wins, they are 90% through the group stage

 

[Theokritos]

Both UEFA and FIFA have tolerated violence for a long time

Inside the stadiums?

 

[Eco]

Inside the stadiums?

I'd say so since they have always just threaten to play behind closed doors but this time they are threaten disqualification from the entire tournament.

 

[TP]

Why is a group B game starting before group A games?

 

[Eco]

****.

1-0 Slovakia

 

[Ace Rothstein]

Nice!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

[Bon Esprit]

2:0 Slovakia.

 

[Eco]

Russia is falling apart.

2-0 Slovakia.

Absolutely sexy strike there. Unreal.

 

[Deficient Mode]

Hamsik has been fantastic this season and tonight in particular.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

French police are going to have their hands full tonite

 

[ViD]

What the **** is going on?

Get Golovin off the pitch he's horrible

 

[Ivan13]

Slovakia is a very good team. They underachieved spectacularly against Wales.

 

[Eco]

Slovakia is a very good team. They underachieved spectacularly against Wales.

This is also an awful looking Russian side. Granted they haven't been a very good side for a couple of years now, but being down 2-0 by half-time is inexcusable.

Russian defenders

 

[darko]

Slutsky is a heart attack waiting to happen.

 

[Milos Krasic]

Shameful

 

[Plural]

Surprised to see Russia playing so poorly.

 

[Plural]
