The World Cup through the lens of Russia Today

Russian television station Russia Today is giving an interesting coverage of the World Cup.

Manchest United manager Jose Murinho is their main pundet and gives an analysis on each game. Also at hand is former goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel, whose son, Kasper is the Danish keeper.

Before each game the viewer is given a short pen-picture of the host city. A lovely way to learn something of the Russian cities, which are hosting the games.

Tomorrow Germany plays Mexico beginning at 16.00 (18.00 Moscow time) at Luzhniki Stadium, Moscow.

This is the World Cup that British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson suggested should be boycotted.

Both the French President and the Germany Chancellor have hinted they may attend the games should their countries advance to the qualifying rounds.
