Cyprus vs Russia: Match Preview
Cyprus, who already struggled throughout the competition, were involved in a tormenting 3-0 defeat in their previous game against Malta. A goal from Joseph Mbong and a brace from Cain Attard helped Malta bag a clinical win and sent Cyprus tumbling down the points table.
On the other hand, Russia were a part of a disappointing stalemate against Croatia. Both the teams gave their all into the game but after several gallant attempts, the scoresheet read 0-0. Croatia had 15 attempts at goal while Russia had just 8. However, despite that, Russia had one more shot on target than Croatia. It was a disappointing day for both nations.
