They got away with a lack of composure there.
I though they looked pretty promising, definitely a bit more interesting than the last few iterations of the England team. Flooding the box well but let down by lacking a killer instinct.

poland didn't have much success in russia historically too
let the memes come
at this point i'm slightly believing that either a) the russian players families are being held against their will or b) brown envelopes are being exchanged.

WADA don't give a shit about football in the same way they do the winter Olympics.

Both of these.
Russia has put a lot of work into getting a better team. Beating third tier teams (at best) shouldn't be a surprise.
Sure you can use doping in football to great effect, but it doesn't make you better at controlling the ball or understanding and executing proper tactics.

This does remind me (not football related but sports and lolrussia).
It's not like Russia doesn't have a wonderful history of cheating in just about every sport, as yet again proven by even bloody LeMans this year.

The G-Drive Racing LMP2 team has been stripped of its class victory in the Le Mans 24 Hours for the use of an illegal device to speed up its refuelling stops.
The amount of Russo-phobia in this thread is kek worthy..
Razor, congrats. Dzyuba stronk
Also, congrats to Japan. I always had a soft spot for japs, glad they won that
