Russia 6-0 Cyprus, 11 November 2021, World Cup 2022 qualifier, seven reasons to celebrate a crushing victory
Seven reasons to be happy for the Russian national team. And one is to be upset
Zabolotny was not forgotten either.
The Russian national team won 6: 0! Whoever was the opponent, no matter how Smolov gave the ball at the feet of the Cypriots.
Therefore, in this hurray text, we have collected seven additional reasons to be happy for the national team. While you can!
1. Six goals. And the biggest victory of the national team since the summer of 2019 (then in Saransk they scored nine goals against San Marino).
2. This victory is not only big, but also very inspiring before leaving for Croatia. It will definitely not be easy there, so self-confidence will not hurt.
3. The team has not only new faces, but also new goalscorers. The Rostov captain Glebov made his debut for the team, and the Zenit players Sutormin and Mostovoy scored for the first time for the main team, also at the stadium of their club.
4. Mostovoy had the best match for the national team, and his place in the team was clearly rethought. In Slovakia, under Cherchesov, the striker was replaced back in the second half 20 minutes after coming on as a substitute. Andrey was sincerely surprised and threw up his hands.
Today he left the field as a dodgy and unpredictable player of the match – only in the moment with a goal he clocked three, continued to effectively feint after.
Thanks to Mostovoy, the national team won gracefully.
5. Safonov saved in the only (and therefore the main) moment of the match: at the end of the first half after hitting his head almost at point-blank range. I didn’t hit it in front of me, and the defenders also cleaned up the penalty area.
The result is another dry match of the national team (the fifth out of six under Karpin). And confident Safonov at the gate.

6. At Zenit, Erokhin is a joker. In the national team – one of the leaders of the attacks. The team that develops their speed and protects the national team at the moments when the central striker is silent. Visually – Alexander is in a consistently good mood. It’s nice to look at such a leader of the national team.
7. As well as the anger of Anton Zabolotny. Which came out with the help of the program – to score at any cost. An angry and scratched goal at the moment when it was possible to roll Miranchuk is proof. Going out aggressive and confident to finish off an opponent is strong.
1 + 1 from Zabolotny – like the final of the defeat 6: 0.
***
Well, the only reason to be upset (you carefully read the title?). Five goals in the second half hid not the most intelligible game of the national team until the 55th minute. There was a heap of Cypriots at the end of the first half, and faceless attacks performed by Miranchuk, and Smolov’s losses.
In general, we are happy, but careful.
