It was necessary, just extremely necessary. And the defeat of Argentina in the class and they just disappeared. The Russian national team lost just when defeat was not fatal when in front of decisive matches, which will be played at all, there is still time to rethink themselves and their game …

I do not know who chose the opponent for a friendly match and what motives guided, but everything turned out very well. Very crazy to listen to an interview before the match like “we prove to ourselves that we are no worse than Argentina.” This is a very bad statement, when the bow (in October), a match for anything in the world with Germany.

more before the match in my head the thought crept in – only to not win. During the match, of course, bolelschitskaya nature made itself felt, but on the scoreboard when it all fell into place, now is the internal relief – all exactly as it should be. Such lesions are needed, they simply needed to fall to the ground and then soar again want to the skies in the assessment of their capabilities.

“When the scoreboard all fell into place, now is the internal relief – all exactly as it should be”

From the first minutes of the match both teams played a friendly against a classic – not too high speed, slipping in some important-looking movements … It is in this microclimate and scored our first goal. But here's the trouble, the Argentines, even in this situation had the class to implement the five points of 4, and in the first half we scored only once, although opportunities were hulk.

It's not about the fact that some have come to the match seriously, while others loose, no. The thing is that one class is enough to even have a friendly match 100% of th realization, while in others its obvious disadvantage. Who knows what would have happened if the game had any significance tournament, there is no guarantee that we would have lost, but this match showed that we are worse than Argentina's, and this must be clearly understood that in the future to achieve anything. < / p>

What we liked in the game our guys, so it's midfield. Zyryanov, Semak, Semshov, Denisov, – the ideal bundle for the current times, I wish that someone would have to remove when they return to build quickly and Zhirkov, but this quartet played divinely. They, incidentally, completely outplayed their opponents and South America have only meaningful goal of our team at this meeting.

Also worth mentioning

Arshavin and Akinfeev – both showed their class, both times extravaganza. But at the same time, if at all Akinfeev have nothing to reproach, that Andrew was also a noticeable touch of understanding the status of the match. Foot in football does not beat Argentina, even if on the spot to beat three opponents at once.

Now the bad. Disappointed with our forwards. First and foremost, this concerns Kerzhakov. Alexander, having received a chance in the first minutes of this match, frankly blown. Look video, the impression that the field in some sly way to break through the student Youth Academy. No offense to Alexander, but he played a disgusting, despite the fact that he – one of the few who went on the field with glowing eyes. That ball will fly away from him for two meters, then stumble on an invisible bump. It is understood that Alexander wanted to express themselves in the light of such a successful season for the club itself, but because Gus sees all, and remember, as the attacker responds to the high responsibility.

“With all due respect to Roman Pavlyuchenko, but currently it is in the team only for past achievements, which may soon not be enough to get the call again”

Not pleased with Pogrebnyak and Pavlyuchenko. And if the first rolled into the season and it can be understood, the second justification enough, more precisely, only one – he is too little given time to prove himself. But even with these all “but” our very napadentsy rasstarivayut, and one might wonder why no team Bukharova. No, it is understood, a young, inexperienced, unstable, but do those who have, in anything other than experience, it is better? With all due respect to Roman Pavlyuchenko, but currently it is in the team only for past achievements, which may soon not be enough to get the call again.

After the European Championships he shows any bit of that game, for which he could call the first team of the country without a name. Even yesterday's goal a lot about what he says. Look carefully repeat – if not bounce (or novel specifically at such an angle the defender took a pot shot in the leg? Well, yes, of course), the ball would fly exactly in the center of the gate. And such a gift does striker at the last minute, the score 1:3 in which not in your favor …

Before the match, Gus gave an interview in which he said that the new people for the team does not see. And we ought to take a closer look. The backbone of the national team – this is good, but some elements of the skeleton have their place only by force of habit. This defeat, the sonorous flick on the nose are very useful, firstly, to restore order in their own minds, and secondly, to get rid of the feeling that everything is well and good.
