Denis Cheryshev vs Croatia
Russia was a truly great host at the World Cup. Part of this hospitality was due to the feel-good factor bought back to the footballing scene by their national team’s run to the Quarter Final where they bowed out against eventual runners-up Croatia on penalties. One of the best Russian moments came when Cheryshev played a smart one-two with Dzyuba and fired past Subasic in the top corner. A moment for the Russian archives.
