Moscow, HanTer - The grand event of the 2018 world football championship is about to begin. Russia as a host country gets the privilege of opening the opening party. But it would be a breeze if they failed to secure victory when entertaining Saudi Arabia in the Group A allowance at the Luzhniki Stadium on Thursday (14/6/2018) night local time.
Victory became a price to die for Russia in order to maintain the prestige and add to the hubbub of the atmosphere when appearing in front of the public itself. Especially when viewed from the big name, Saudi Arabia as their opponent in the first week, no more favored than the Red Bear, nicknamed Russia.
Indeed, the status of the host becomes a dilemma for Russia. Because they are pegged to step into the fall phase. That way, they must pass through obstacles in the Group A qualifying phase by reaping positive results in three matches that will be held, including against Saudi Arabia in the opening party
However, if the history of backward meeting is to be drawn, the Red Bear feels compelled to be vigilant with the fast-paced game that Saudi Arabia possesses. Because when the two teams met 25 years ago or rather in 1993, the Red Bear was forced to surrender with a score of 4-2.
But all is just a memory of the past. Now Russia became one of the teams to be reckoned with. And no doubt if they set the victory in the opening weekend in order to maintain a pride and prestige when playing at home.
In order to secure full points at home, coach Stanislav Cherchesov's team is undergoing intensive training at UTC Novogorsk, precisely in the north-west of Moscow city center. In addition to Saudi Arabia they are also preparing to face Egypt in the second week.
For that besides practicing, the Russian squad also studied in depth the power of two black horses that could potentially tackle them. They studied it by looking at some video footage from the appearance of Saudi Arabia and Egypt. "We have watched their last game and both teams look impressive," said defender Vladimir Granat told The Nations.
Asked about an exam that will be given by Saudi players, Granat said: "The coach is still analyzing their pros and cons and seeing their technical game." Our opponent's detailed analysis is still ahead. "We are still refining and getting our best performance. will achieve that for the opening game. " Eka
