Koloskov believes that the victory over Slovenia in Sochi could be key in the selection for the 2022 World Cup

“The main thing in this game was to achieve results. The victory is very important and necessary, it can become a key one in the struggle to reach the world championship. The coaches very correctly built the game tactically, counting on the best qualities of Dziuba, his ability to push through, hold the ball and dispose of it correctly. Dzyuba did everything that was required of him, I think that this victory is largely the merit of correct tactics, “TASS quoted Koloskov as saying.

He noted that the Russian team managed to keep the winning score thanks to timely and competent substitutions.

“Good and correct replacements have been made. Zhirkov started to get tired by the middle of the second half, a fresh Karavaev came out, Golovin was a little shocked by the card and was a little cautious, so Alexei Miranchuk came out, ”Koloskov added.

The Russian national team defeated Slovenia with a score of 2: 1. Both goals of the Russian team were scored by Artyom Dzyuba.

Earlier it was reported that Cherchesov caught up with Hiddink in the number of victories at the head of the Russian national team.
