World Cup 2018, opening match: Russia squash Saudi Arabia 5-0

FIFA World Cup 2018 opening match between Russia and Saudi Arabia at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium: Russia demolished Saudi Arabia 5-0 to record the biggest opening night victory in World Cup history




Denis Cheryshev brace and goals from Yury Gazinsky, Artem Dzyuba and Aleksandr Golovin helped Russia beat Saudi Arabia 5-0 in the opening match of the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

It's also the biggest win on the opening day of a football World Cup since 1934.

Russia comprehensively thrashed Saudi Arabia, 5-0, in the opening game of its home World Cup. Yuri Gazinsky scored on a header 12 minutes in, and afterward, Saudi Arabia could offer little resistance.
Russia’s second, third and fourth goals were all by substitutes: one by Artem Dzyuba and two by Denis Cheryshev. With time running out, Aleksandr Golovin got the fifth goal on a free kick, past a badly tired Saudi defense.
Saudi Arabia, a team whose players are virtually all based in their obscure home league, offered an air of mystery. But that was before the game. It became clear very quickly that they were no match for a Russian team that itself has not been a worldbeater in recent years.
