World Cup 2018: The best and worst players from Russia v Uruguay

#2 Worst: Igor Smolnikov

There's no reason why this man shouldn't be on the wrong side of this list.

It wasn't a happy outing for him, as he got himself booked twice in the space of just eight minutes.

His first booking was not required if viewed closely, as he clattered into Cavani when the forward posed no real threat from the half line. For no reason whatsoever, the right-back shifted from his position, followed the PSG forward and sent him to ground.

His second challenge was needless and reckless. If the context of the game is taken into account, it was an absolute shocker from his side. Knowing that his side was already 2-0 down, the harsh tackle should have been the last thing on his mind.

After that send-off, we all knew it was over for the hosts. The entire team was held responsible for a couple of silly moments created by him.
