Description:
Russia had dominated the first leg World Cup play-off in Moscow to take a 2-0 lead but the Slovenia substitute Nejc Pecnik's header two minutes from time has left the tie in the balance...second leg to be continued in Maribor on Wednesday.The Russian team has already made the last training before tomorrow match at Ljudski Vrt Stadium (en. People's Garden) in Maribor. "We will play aggressive, attacking football. It would be against Russian nature to take a cautious, defensive approach", said Guus Hiddink, Russia's Coach. The team is also very pleased with turf.
The Slovenia national team coach says he has spent the past few days developing a strategy to beat Russia after recovering from a tough game in Moscow. "We have to win this match either with one goal difference with a 1-0 result or during extra time, or with a two goal difference and this will determine our tactics", said Slovenian Coach Matjaz Kek. He thinks they will play much better as they are more familiar with natural turf in Maribor rather than the synthetic surface they played on at Moscow's Luzhniki. And there is also home advantage.
