The second round of matches will conclude on Sunday, and the third round will commence on Monday with a very interesting match-up. Uruguay and Russia will clash against each other for the top spot of Group A. Both teams have already booked their ticket to the next round, and it only remains to be seen who will finish at the top. Uruguay are coming off a slim win against Saudi Arabia, while Russia dropped three goals on Egypt in a not so easy match.

Uruguay defeated Saudi Arabia by the same 0-1 score on Wednesday. It was Luis Suarez who took the lead at the 23rd minute, and it turned out to be the only goal of the match. Uruguay were not very good in that match, and were actually threatened by their opponents, who had almost as many shots on target as Uruguay. However, the quality of players is so low that Uruguay didn't have to worry at all. Uruguay have now mathematically qualified to the knockout round, but will have to fight against hosts Russia for the top spot.

On the other hand we have hosts Russia, who are coming off yet another dominant win against Egypt. At least on paper, because Russia were very lucky to take the lead when Egypt scored an own goal at the 47th minute. Russia took advantage of the situation as they went on to score two more goals very quickly (59th, 62nd). Egypt was actually the better team in the second half, but only managed to score a consolation penalty kick with Salah. Russia have now scored 8 goals, and only Belgium have done the same thing so far. However, Russia have been extremely lucky (and pushed) so far, and this will not go on forever.
