#Russia thrash #SaudiArabia 5-0 in opening match of #WorldCup
Problem for Russia with this win is that very modest expectations will now start to tilt towards unrealistic ones. It is a great start but it could lead to great problems if not managed intelligently.
"I was relaxed yesterday and I'm relaxed today because I know my players. It is a pleasure to work with them. Every coach depends on the players, this is why I am relaxed. Why do I have to be stressed?" - Russia coach Stanislav Cherchesov
