Well in most their friendlies they seemed like a mediocre team at best. Even against us, we were leading by a goal until 75'. However looks like they've turned into a totally different team. Even their Euro 2016 journey was farce of a display.Originally posted by BacheLot View PostIs Russia the most underrated team of this WC..!???
I could never understand all the shit talk about them being weak ..?

I really think there is something going behind the scenes for the host nation. Both Saudi and Egypt didn’t look so excited even to try win the game.Originally posted by Keano View PostWell in most their friendlies they seemed like a mediocre team at best.

let's see them play against Uruguay, and then we'll know how strong they are. Saudi Arabia is a joke and even Egypt is an average one-man team, with that one man not being 100% fit. Neither opponent has really tested Russia.Originally posted by BacheLot View PostIs Russia the most underrated team of this WC..!???

It was a bit misleading partly because their pre-WC friendlies were with the cream of the crop (Brazil, Spain, Argentina).Originally posted by BacheLot View PostIs Russia the most underrated team of this WC..!???

Also, their roster was almost exclusively made up of players from their domestic league. Not coincidentally Russia's leading scorer right now, Cheryshev, is the one guy playing abroad. After this tournament we'll see a lot more doing that, starting with Golovin.
