Summary: Croatia - Russia 0: 1 (Sports 1)
The last round of the World Cup qualifiers in Europe kicked off today (Sunday) with a dramatic reversal at the top of the eighth house, in which Croatia secured their place in the World Cup after a 0-1 home win over Russia, which stabilized for the game from first place and had a draw enough to automatically qualify for Qatar. You will have to get the ticket through the playoffs eventually.

Precisely after recording crushing victories last Thursday, Croatia with 1: 7 over Malta and Russia with 0: 6 over Cyprus, this time both teams had a hard time producing great valley situations, mainly due to the harsh conditions on the pitch that was flooded due to torrential rain falling during the match.
But then came an unfortunate moment for Russia, when in the 81st minute left defender Fedor Kudryashov failed in an attempted dismissal and scored an embarrassing own goal, which left his team without a place in the World Cup at least at this stage.
In any case, it is difficult to say that the victory did not reach the Croats, who despite the problematic grass conditions completely controlled the game and recorded 20 threats (6 of them per frame) on the hair of the guest, who in turn threatened only twice.
This is probably the most miserable moment in his career.
