Russian Football Now Podcast #15: Russia Misses the World Cup

In partnership with Russian Football Now, EPL Talk presents the thirteenth episode of RNF’s podcast.

Russia was many’s dark-horse in South Africa. One problem: getting there.

Slovenia completed their upset of Russia with a 1-0 win in Maribor, going through on away goals after a 2-2 aggregate. Who is to blame? Hiddink and his questionable selection? The player’s undeniably poor performance? Slovenia?

In this week’s podcast, Chris Riordan and Richard Farley, joined by the English-language voice of the Premier Liga (Matryn Hindley), look at where and why Russian failed.

That, and a look forward to match day 29 of 30 in the Primera.
