2018 FIFA World Cup - 19 June 2018

Loading player...
Its day six of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia and all eyes will be turning to St. Petersburg this evening.
Last night one of the pretournament favourites, Belgium, fired a clear warning shot to the other big names, by beating the debutants, Panama, 3-0, albeit, they were not firing on all cylinders.
The celebrations continue in England, after they left it to late, for the captain Harry Kane, to header the winner against Tunisia in Volgograd. Seeing that it was their first win over African opposition in three games, and their first World Cup victory in eight games, they do have reason to celebrate.
A star of the English game, Mo Salah, who led the Liverpool charge in the English Premiership and the UEFA Champions League, is expected to be playing against the host Russia this evening.
The marksman has recovered from his shoulder injury he sustained during the Champions League Final against Real Madrid.
The Pharaohs coach, Cuper Hector, confirmed that he could have played during their late 1-0 loss to Uruguay, however, he will still undergo another fitness test.
