Cheryshev celebrates one of his goals vs Saudi Arabia

FIFA World Cup 2018 started with goals as hosts Russia thrashed Saudi Arabia 5-0 in a very open game. 

Villareal winger Denis Cheryshev was the star man as he scored two beautiful goals, Juventus target Golovin was also in fine form assisting two goals and scoring a freekick at just before full time.

Hopefully, the tournament will see more open games and goals like this as this will be a great advert for the game.
