"Viasat Sport Baltic" channel will show three intriguing matches of the UEFA European zone World Cup qualifying round this and next week. On October 12th at 17:55, live broadcast from the "Luzhniki" stadium in Moscow will begin, where the Russian national team will host Portugal. On October 16th at 21:55, a clash of European giants: Spaniards will face the French at home. Overnight from October 16th to 17th, at 00:00, a recording of the match between the national teams of Ukraine and Montenegro will be shown. Russians and Portuguese are the leaders of Group F. Both teams won their matches. The Russian team defeated Northern Ireland 2-0 and crushed Israel 4-0 as visitors. The Portuguese national team with Cristiano Ronaldo at the forefront narrowly defeated Luxembourg 2-1 and beat Azerbaijan 3-0. Before the clash between Russians and Portuguese, doubts arose whether C. Ronaldo would appear on the field. He suffered a shoulder injury in the "El Clasico" match against "Barcelona", but it will not prevent him from playing in Moscow. C. Ronaldo will arrive in the Russian capital in a great mood - he will quickly sign a new contract with Real Madrid and earn 15 million euros per season - 5 million more than before. The French will try to defeat the world and European champion Spain, who have forgotten the taste of defeat. The Spanish national team beat France 2-0 in this year's European Championship quarterfinals. In Group I, the French defeated the Finns 1-0 and the Bulgarians 3-1. The Spaniards forced the Georgians to surrender only at the very end of the match with a 1-0 victory. The Ukrainians started the qualifying tournament solidly, ending their away match against the English 1-1. Montenegrins played a 2-2 draw with the Poles and wiped out San Marino 6-0.
