Russia faces tough test vs. Ireland in Euro 2012
Posted Sunday, September 04, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
Russia needs a victory when it hosts Ireland on Tuesday to ensure it remains top of the tightest qualifying group for the European Championship.
Russia was criticized for wasted opportunities in Friday’s 1-0 win over a young Macedonian team and faces a much tougher test against the Irish, who have not conceded a goal in their last six matches.
Russia is two points clear of Ireland and Slovakia, which share second place with 14 points from seven games in Group B.
Slovakia is at home against Armenia.
