Russia vs. Egypt serves as the nightcap of another busy day in the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The host nation is taking the pitch for the second time in the tournament when they take the field at Report Krestovsky Stadium in Saint Petersburg to face off against a promising Egypt squad in Group A play.
The host nation, which opened up a dominant lead in group play with a 5-0 shellacking of Saudi Arabia in the first game of the World Cup, will be tasked with the job of slowing down Egypt star striker Mo Salah, who was forced to miss Egypt’s first game as he continued to recover from a shoulder injury suffered in Liverpool’s Champions League loss to Real Madrid.
All of the information you need to catch Tuesday’s match in Saint Petersburg can be seen below.
