The group stage tournament has ended, leaving mixed feelings due to its final matches (a home defeat against Germany and a draw with Azerbaijan). However, if you had told me a year ago that "Russia would drop from 6th to 12th place in the FIFA ranking" and that we would be the favorites in the match against Germany, I probably wouldn't have believed it!

Well, in the match against the Germans, our team played well. They just lacked some luck. As for the game against Azerbaijan... it was a poor performance, of course, but essentially, the game didn't decide anything. Diniyar playing as a left-back doesn't work, in my opinion.

I'm wary of the Slovenians. They might gather for the playoff matches, and if our team doesn't mobilize properly, Hiddink might turn gray as a kite and refuse to extend his contract :)

However, after the first half, the score was 1-0.

Yes, a good goal + a good run by Zhirkov. But unfortunately, these are all individual actions. It's a shame because as a team, they created very little, practically nothing particularly sharp. The Slovenians are playing well, but it's clear that our team is on a higher level.
Overall, in the second half, we need to finish them off! :)

Another great goal by Bilyaletdinov! And I would say it was a beautiful goal by the Slovenians. But Akinfeev made the whole thing even better.
2-1, not a bad result:rolleyes:

The last 20 minutes didn't look very convincing. It was as if the match was already over. Still, they manage to play well in bursts...

They probably just fell asleep from such a game by the Slovenians. Their first shot on goal didn't happen until the 70th minute, and even that was from thirty meters out. And they scored (the Slovenians) on a lucky bounce. Nothing good awaits them. Bilyaletdinov is doing well, especially with the first goal. We'll all be watching on Wednesday!!

It seems I'm the only one who liked the Slovenians' performance. In football, the most important thing is the result. Despite their aesthetically pleasing style of play, the Slovenians achieved a fantastic result, and I think it gives them excellent chances of winning the tie after the two matches.

They simply fell asleep from such a game played by the Slovenians.

That's not true. In the first half, especially at the beginning, the Slovenians looked good.
At the beginning of the second half, our team simply overwhelmed them with constant pressure and interceptions. But after scoring the second goal, they calmed down and didn't pay much attention to the serious intensification of the Slovenian attack. As a result, they conceded a goal.

I'm almost sure that our team will score at least one goal. This means that the Slovenians need to score two. Then we'll see.

They didn't look good at all. They just unexpectedly started the match. But what dividends did they get from it? Corner kicks, during which none of them even touched the ball? Shots wide of the goal? Sure, go ahead. Not a single shot even came close to the goal. The first shot on target, as I already said, was in the 70th minute from thirty meters. Slovenia has no chance.

Friendly match
Spain - Argentina - what a spectacle!
In terms of player lineup and the quality of the game, they are among the main favorites for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, although there is a possibility that the team's non-playing lineup, including the coach, might not be optimal. While Spain seems to be managing this well, I believe Argentina still has a problem in this area.
Friendly match
I didn't watch Brazil - England, but I assume that the match was less aesthetically pleasing.
P.S. Russia and France, in my opinion, will confirm their advantage, and Ukraine and Bosnia should settle the score in the return match... at least, that's how I'll be rooting for them.

But this isn't Slovenia's fault, but rather the merit of the Russians :) They withstood the initial pressure. By the way, as I already wrote during the match, in the first half, the Russians created chances solely through individual actions. That same goal was more due to Diniyar's individual skill than the entire team.

But something was definitely felt throughout the match, and that was that Russia is already stronger in terms of class and that they still have room for improvement.
I agree with Alex here.

Russia and France, in my opinion, will confirm their superiority.

Absolutely, Zubr. You are right that the first goal was entirely due to Bilyaletdinov's efforts. Moreover, in my opinion, the goal itself turned out to be somewhat amusing in the sense that it didn't logically follow from the flow of the game.
Regarding the Slovenian national team's playing style: how else were they supposed to play as guests and against a stronger opponent from the start?

Gur
