A Russian Fan in Pains after the loss to Croatia.
Segun Atanda/
Moscow Times wasn’t sympathetic with its headline Saturday when Russia lost its quarter-final match to Croatia.
Moscow Times immediately published a screaming headline ‘Russia Kicked Out of World Cup’ after the penalty shootout that ended 4-3, following a 2-2 score at full-time.
NewsmakersNG, however, could not find the reason why the story was later yanked off the site.
Russia started the tournament with a lot of promise after defeating Saudi Arabia and Egypt with a loss to Uruguay at the group stages, and sending Spain home in the round-of-16 game.
