  • 5' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Russia needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 10' - We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 20' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ivan Strinic made 165 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 25' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
