In the match of the fifth round of the group stage of the League of Nations, Division B, the Turkish national team faced off against Russia, which at that time did not know defeat in the current tournament draw..

Already in the 11th minute, Denis Cheryshev put the Russians ahead, but after a short period of time Andrey Semenov decided to help the opposing team and earned a direct red card for a last resort foul.

Left in the minority, Stanislav Cherchesov's wards conceded two goals in six minutes, and after the break, Chenk Tosun converted a penalty kick in the 52nd minute and increased the advantage of the Turkish national team in the score. Despite the fact that Daler Kuzyaev quickly managed to play one goal, this was not enough for the Russian national team to avoid defeat.
