Final FIFA World Cup Power Rankings

Germany World Cup

22. Russia

The Russians don’t have much going for them in 2018 if they continue to play like how they did in this World Cup. Three goals conceded in three games is okay for the Russian side, but only two goals scored is very poor.

They couldn’t complete passes as well as others, and thus their possession suffered.

Russia needs to fire Fabio Capello and hire someone who will understand the system the Russian roster can play under.

Goals Scored: 2 (26th)

Goals Conceded: 3 (2nd)

Completed Passes: 74% (22nd)

Attacks: 134 (17th)

Shot on goal per total shots: 59% (17th)

Possession: 49.3% (17th)

Completed Clearances: 91% (4th)

Saves: 10 (22nd)
